Head Coach Greg Allen Comments
“For a day that just didn’t go our way on the golf course, I’m really proud of how my team handled themselves,” said Allen. “They are a very classy bunch and don’t get caught up with the scoreboard, bad shots or missed putts. We had a really good talk after the round and discussed where we need to make some adjustments with course management. Trust me, one bad day on the golf course won’t cause me to lose any sleep tonight.”
