Coach's Quote
"The team did a great job of putting up a good number on the first day so we were in contention on the final," said Head Coach Sally Kosters. "All weekend I was pleased with our ball striking and we were making a lot of greens in regulation. Our areas that need work are still putting, and for some, it is avoiding the big, round, destroying number. Both areas of improvement are mental."

The Flyers will travel to the Eastern Kentucky Colonel Classic from March 31 to April 1 in Richmond, Ky., at the University Club at Arlington. Coach Kosters and the team are looking forward to the time off to practice before this big spring competition. "We have 3 weeks before EKU and the team is fired up," said Kosters. "They set a goal for each round at this tournament last year and reached it. They are ready to stretch that goal and meet it."
