The win streak has been great. We have improved our doubles play and it has definitely brought a lot of confidence to the team. We beat a couple of big rivals during this win streak, rivals that we play every year. Our program is doing well and we are headed in the right direction.

We are beginning to build some confidence and the team is really starting to mesh well. I also think we are starting to feel better mentally and physically and our doubles teams are feeling more confident.

It's nice to be seen as one of the top teams in the league. The rankings don't mean a whole lot, but we can appreciate it. It really comes down to the conference season.

I think it's going to be tough playing in Des Moines over the weekend because Drake has a home court advantage. We are going to continue our same strategy, which is winning the doubles point and winning down low. If we keep our course, I think we will be in good shape.

The last couple of years the rivalry has intensified between us. When you play Bradley in any sport you want to do well. We are looking forward to the match and I'm sure Bradley is too.

The doubles point is honestly one of the biggest parts of a match.

The first round will not be as difficult to play. Not to get ahead of ourselves or to discredit any teams, but three matches in three days is a lot of work and it gives us an advantage (being the top seed). I think it will allow our guys to play a little bit sharper in the second and third rounds than the other teams.
