COACH'S QUOTE
"I'm very happy with the guys' performance this week," commented head coach
Gip Hoagland. "They continue to improve on a week-to-week basis. We didn't have our best round in round one but they bounced back in round two. Today, they came out ready to play and posted a really good score again today. Their confidence is rising.
"I'm super excited for Henry on his individual victory. He has worked extremely hard this fall and all that hard work is paying off as he continues to improve. I'm not at all surprised by his performance. Really happy he was able to get the win at the end of the tournament."
