Watts said, "This was a match we had been anticipating since the beginning of spring. We started out strong by taking the doubles point. Kyllian Savary won an epic three-set match on line one singles. Johan Favelin battled at line two and it was a great match to watch. Favelin had some match points but his opponent played very well and was able to fend him off. I know the team is disappointed with the loss, but hopefully we can learn from the result. I hope we have another opportunity to play Xavier at the conference tournament."
