MUELLER ON LIBERTY CONTEST
Liberty has established themselves as constantly ranked team in college tennis. They have depth and talent. There is a reason they made the NCAA tournament last year. They have been really strong at home in the last couple years, so we are looking at another challenging match that is good for our development.
