Dave Lipe Good Quotations

We got some nice performances. There were some good teams in this tournament, and we played a lot of them.

I have to give a lot of credit to our grounds staff. They did an outstanding job of fixing things and getting it ready to play on. It didn't look good early, but they did a great job working on the screen and the fence and got us ready to play.

Those will be good tests for us. That tournament will have some good competition. We've got a full week planned.

We saved our best for last. That match didn't start until 11 p.m., so it was a long day and it was pretty late when we got out of there. The kids did a nice job with focus. It was late, they played three times, we played for 11 hours and they had prom the next day, so there were a lot of distractions there and we didn't let them bother us. That was good to see.

We looked at the weather and it didn't look good for Saturday. So we just did the whole thing Friday night. It was a long day of tennis, but we got it all in and we feel fortunate to have done that, to have been able to keep our focus all day long and win it.
