?With so many freshmen playing their first year of tennis, and Josh with just one year of experience, we will continue to work hard to close the skill-level gap that exists at this time,? coach Stuart Holmes said.

?The guys continued to hustle and make some good shots, which was positive. A highlight was that Jacob Isaac was able to play well enough to win a match.?
