COACH'S QUOTE
"This week was an excellent performance for our team," reflected head coach Collin Toner. "I'm honestly prouder of our effort, and team spirit than our victory last week. This week we proved that we could go toe-to-toe with several B1G teams.
 
One of the players pointed out that we've significantly changed our expectations from the beginning of the year when he sensed some dejection in our 4th place finish. It's a blessing to be with this group and see the improvement just 4 events into the season."
 
Coach also had this to say about his sophomore standout.
"TJ Kreusch had an outstanding event. I can't emphasize how firm the golf course played this week, and he managed his ball extremely well. He is very talented, and I know he will be in a competitive mindset next week at NCR."
 
UP NEXT
Dayton will wrap up the fall partition of its 2026-27 schedule next week as they host the program's annual Dayton Flyer Invitational. The three-round event will take place Oct. 19-20 at NCR Country Club in Kettering. Spectators are welcome.
