COACH'S QUOTE
"Congratulations to Davidson and coach Straub," head coach Gip Hoagland commented following the championship. "They played great and really got it done this weekend. Our guys really gave it their all but we simply didn't have all we needed to make a run. There were a lot of really good things, highlighted by Ben Cors' 68 in round one. I also want to congratulate Henry May for being selected to the All-Conference Team for the year. He had a great season and it is good to see him recognized for his year-long success. Finally, I want to recognize my seniors: Kyle Schmidt, Blake Solomon and Dylan Stevens. It has been a pleasure serving as their coach and having them be a part of the Flyer family."
