COACH KOSTERS'S COMMENT
"I'm really pleased about our play this weekend. We had one of our best starting rounds ever, all four scores in the 70's with
Sarah Frazier shooting even par. That start was a real boost to our confidence.
"Tuesday, the winds coming off the water were up to 25 mph and freezing cold but
Abby Bitto and
Sarah Frazier again were solid, and a pleasant surprise was freshman,
Sarah O'Connor, finishing two-over-par under those brutal conditions. We're all really thankful and excited to be playing again and it looks like a really promising spring!"
UP NEXT
Dayton will return to action March 13-14 for the Low Country Intercollegiate hosted by Wofford. The event will be held at Bear Creek Golf Club in Hilton Head, S.C.
