QUOTABLES
"Jenna played great today. She actually borrowed a putter from the pro shop because she had some struggles with her putter yesterday. Our other girls struggled a little bit today and we got ourselves in some positions that were tough to score from. The pins were tucked and the wind picked up today, but we have to learn from our mistakes and learn how to handle adversity. We have the offseason to figure some things out after a pretty good fall with two freshmen in the lineup and a lot of positives to remember." – Head Coach Chris Adams
