“This match was a lot closer than the score indicates,” said coach Brian Gundersen. “We won 3 matches in the third set, which says a lot about how we competed. Give Sequim credit, they were fighting until the last shot.”
Gundersen singled out Michael Soule and Damon Gundersen as the players of the match.
“The longer the match went, the stronger they got,” said Gundersen.
