Quotes
"It was another clean match, which is really what we needed and wanted to have this weekend. I was impressed with our doubles play. Karolina [Berankova] and Emma [Jackson] have been playing a little bit in practice and played well. So, we thought that we would give that a try and they played really well. No. 1 doubles match was probably one of the best matches we've played all year -- just as far as ball-striking and finishing points. It was good to get those two -- the No. 2 doubles finished when the other one was at match point so we were able to finish that one to get all three, which is a rare thing. Then we got three quick singles matches. We gave BC really nothing to feed off of. Iuliia [Bryzgalova] played really well and got off the court quick and, and Emma followed right after that. We really didn't give them any space to breathe or figure things out, which was which was good for us." -- Duke head coach
