Coach Jernigan Says…
"Congrats to Limestone on a great match. They really took it to us in doubles and singles today. Felt like as soon as we would get some momentum we would give it right back. We just couldn't get any traction going. They are a heck of a team loaded with talent. I was so proud of Jennifer Ball today. She had to fight through some tough emotions and overcome a mountain to secure her win and she did. She battled so hard it was amazing to watch as a coach. She took a major step in her development today."
