On the match…
"Adversity sparks growth. We have a lot to learn from tonight and I'm excited that we have the opportunity to play again tomorrow. We talk all the time about 'it is your response.' So we need to do some soul searching tonight and come back ready to play tomorrow. It comes down to competing against every opponent, every match and to take advantage of the opportunity to compete"
