I was pleased tonight with our service. We have been struggling in that area the last few weeks and I counted five total service errors tonight in all four matches so I was pretty pleased with that. Flomaton did a great job on the net and we were just able to contain them a little bit. We did not stop them tonight, but we just tried to contain them. They played well and we hung in there with some things and I am just proud to get the win. I was pleased with the serving because we have been struggling with that, but we battle back tonight and did a real good job.”
