On the match...
"Overall, we handled it very well. Anytime you can take care of two SEC matches, 4-0 and 4-1, you can't ask for a whole lot more than that. They are playing at a very high level; the Aggies are playing some good tennis."
UP NEXT...
The Aggies return to action Thursday when they host Georgia at the Mitchell Tennis Center with first serve set for 5 p.m.
