Senior Arthur Rinderknech came through for us. After losing the first set, he came back to win the next two and sent us to the Final Four.
To be the Best, you must play the Best.
In addition to playing against 10 [9-1] games against SEC teams ranked in the ITA Top 50 teams, we played 8 [4-4] nonconference ranked teams:
#2 UCLA, #3 Ohio State, #6 North Carolina, #8 TCU, #14 Oklahoma, #25 Notre Dame, #30 Texas Tech, and #36 Arizona State.
What a warmup to get ready to become the undefeated 2018 SEC Champions, come oh so close to winning the 2018 SEC Tournament Championship, and get all the way to the Final Four in the NCAA Tournament.
What an incredible season this has been. This has been the greatest season we have ever had. [2015 a close second]
I hope Tim Cass has been following us.
