I think Courtney Owens, for never playing a tennis match a day in her life other than what she's played in practice, has done really well.
More Quotes from Marianne Bretschneider:
I've had losses. But I'd probably go through this and not feel as bad about the situation if I knew my kids left everything out there on the court, but they haven't done that this week. I've been trying to tell them 'you need to be focused.' This isn't how my girls play tennis.Marianne Bretschneider
Courtney was right we really do need to work on ball placement. For a while when I talked to my kids my big thing was I want you to spend these next two games working on letting them make the mistakes. I do want them to work on control and placement. It just comes down to what they utilize what they do in practice and remembering and not fiddle-farting around and laughing and giggling. I want them to really focus and know what they can take into a match. I want them to have game plans, I want them to know what they are going to do when they go into a match.

Brittany, who is playing in her first match, has shown a lot of heart, losing a set and then coming back.

In the past I've always gotten frustrated because I've seen other teams step up during the season. I knew yesterday this wasn't the same team that played Battlefield at the start of the season. They had played much better than they have in the past.

It's just getting them to play this strong in back-to-back games.
