QUOTING COACH MCENTIRE
"Saw some good things today and saw some things that need to improve," head coach Mark McEntire. "We did not capitalize on the scoreable holes and made some big numbers. The plan tomorrow is to minimize the big numbers and move up the board. Great play from Kevin today and I'm looking for everyone to improve tomorrow."
