Head coach Ashley Fisher on today's win...
"I'm proud of the grit we showed today. We competed well in doubles and the effort was there. We just need to do a better job of coaching so we can execute better. The afternoon was tough physical tennis and we came through in four singles and were in good positions in the remaining two. We will build from this and continue to march forward"
