QUOTABLE
- "Lipscomb's coming off a great win against Middle Tennessee. They're always a very difficult team to play. We had a difficult match with them here last year, so we know they're a talented team and they're very deep. Same thing with Southern Indiana. They continue to improve each year. Any time you go on the road it's a challenge because you're not playing in an area you're used to playing at, like we have at Warren County. We know we have two very difficult matches this weekend, but we're looking forward to the challenge." – WKU Women's Tennis Head Coach Greg Davis, on the upcoming matches against Lipscomb and Southern Indiana.
