WHAT HEAD COACH SEAN McCAFFREY SAID
"We had some strong showings today by the women. Some of the women who had some difficulties yesterday turned things around today in both singles and doubles. I am counting on all of the women being able to get a little more consistent and show some more fight in the big moments. We are showing promise at times but we need to have a heightened level of fight and heart on a more consistent basis. Emi and Ella still continue to shine in doubles and Ari and Ella did a great job playing against some very tough competition today in order to secure their wins."

NEXT UP
The Eagles will wrap up the FAU Quad at 9:00 a.m. in Boca Raton, Florida. The Eagles will return home following the final day and prepare for Alabama State.
