Quote From Head Coach Constantine Ananiadis
"F&M really showed up for the doubles today and played very well and with lots of energy in every spot.  We, on the other had, miss-executed on crucial points and we ended up down after the doubles.  But we really didn't give it to them, they took it from us!  After that, the guys re-focused nicely and we got off great starts in the singles in the first 4 matches which really put the match away for us.  Our seniors especially really stepped up and having GC clinch it for us was really special.  It's so well-deserved for him!"
