Athlete Spotlight:
"We had a long drive to Maine but we took care of business," said senior Kham Savatdy (Woonsocket, R.I.). "Everyone did their best to get use to the new courts and facility we played at. Caiden was a dog off the bench playing the six spot. All though he lost in singles he gave us points in the doubles and we got to see him in action which was sweet!"
