I was really pleased with the way our team took care of their matches today. Tyler Roach gave us a fantastic effort at three singles, and Sean Brown performed well at one doubles.

Those second sets will give our guys some confidence in later matches, and hopefully pay off throughout conference play,

Marquette is a very fast and disciplined hockey team and they gave us a lot of trouble. We had a solid game plan, but didn't execute it. Plus, we had 12 minor penalties and you can't survive against a team like Marquette with that many penalties.

I was really pleased with most of the matches. What the score does not reflect is the six matches that we lost were in the third-set tiebreaker. These matches could have gone either way.

I was real pleased that we won this match especially since we had to forfeit two matches. This was a great experience for our guys.

The Sheraton Hotel took very good care of us. I feel like I owe my life to the Sheraton Hotel, I do, ... My airline pulled out on me, but out there, hotels pulled out and abandoned their guests. Hotels all around us... I would much rather have had my airline pull out on me than my hotel.
