Key Quote: “Good for Thomas to get through,” said head coach Jamie Hunt. “Tough losses for Ryan and Miguel, but I thought they played at a very high level against two very good players. Niels and Freddy got off to a great start in their match and then were able to close out a tough Stanford team. The exciting thing is I know we can get a lot better in many areas.”
