Brentwood coach, Whitney Ralph said the Eagles’ serves were good when they made them.

“We had too many errors for my liking, but overall I think it was good,” she said.”

Ralph said senior Lauren Macy had a big night, especially serving. Also, “I’ll give our freshman, Caroline (Snare) a little credit. She handled the pressure pretty good for her first match.”
