Quote from Coach Kutrovsky: "Tough conditions today coming out from indoor a couple of days ago, but I thought we actually handled it well. Tulsa is a good team and we needed to be better in the important moments. I think we had our chances in all of the matches but we didn't execute well in the moments that made the difference. Doubles was not good but I feel confident we'll get back on track."
