Coach's Quote

"There's nothing like jumping right into the season with a tough match. Just last year, Presbyterian claimed the Big South title. They are well coached and their players have great sportsmanship. Our matches have been super close the last couple years and today was no different." – ECU Head Coach Shawn Heinchon
