BROWNING'S BULLETS: "Morgan State came out with a lot of confidence and I think we did well to match that. We had people playing higher up in the lineup this match since Morgan State didn't have a full line-up. We did at those spots and we were challenged which was good for us. We'll now have a good week of training and will get back to playing our next match on Thursday, March 22."
LOOK AHEAD: The Colonials will take a week hiatus before returning to action on March 22 to host Cal State Northridge at 11 a.m. at the Southeast Tennis and Learning Center (STLC).
