Head Coach Bianca Turati
It didn't go our way against Kentucky this morning. Our opponents did a better job handling the windy conditions and took better advantage during clutch moments of the matches. We handled business well against Lindenwood to bounce back and we'll get back to work in the next couple of days. We are looking forward to the SEC tournament next week.

UP NEXT
The Tigers will compete in the SEC tournament on Wednesday April, 16 in Auburn, Alabama.
