"The guys played really well today, but couldn't quite take that giant leap forward of knocking off the conference champs.  Hats off to Grace.  They haven't been a powerhouse in our conference for no reason.  They don't make many mistakes and come at you hard every point.  On our side, Victor played a great match against a big-time player in Pablo Gregori.  I've been looking for him to get that signature win and take some huge strides forward, and he did that tonight," said head coach Jamal Henry.
