From Coach Doug Neagle
"It's nice to win our first home SSC match," Neagle said. "The girls played good, disciplined tennis. It's a quick turnaround playing a tough Rollins team tomorrow morning."

Up Next: A big week comes to a close on Sunday morning at 10:00 a.m., as the Sharks take on their third SSC match of the week, as hosts for No. 16 Rollins (3-1, 0-1 SSC) at the NSU Tennis Complex.
