Default Can someone decipher to me what my soil sample means?

I built a raised bed last year and bought some garden soil mix from a local vendor. It was three parts sand, mushroom compost and I think some sort of mulch. i can't remember. My garden did really well in it and the tomato plants swarmed and produced everywhere.

I am planning on using the same raised bed for tomatoes again so I mixed it up real well and grabbed a sample to send off. I just got the results and my pH is a little high for tomatoes. Is 7.2 too high? I'm kind of curious to what it was when I purchased it last year.

It also lists some recommendations at the bottom that I'm a little confused about. Can someone help me out by deciphering what these results mean and what do I need to do to prepare it for this Springs garden?
