QUOTING COACH MCENTIRE
"It was a tough week," head coach Mark McEntire said. "We got behind the 8 ball the first day and just could not get anything going. Great tournament from Nick Wolf. Good to see some solid rounds from Owen and Gavin. We have some work to do and will get after it. I still believe we have a very good team."
