FROM THE LOCKEROOM
"I am really proud of the team for this week's performance. Yesterday, we came out a little flat and struggled to get it going as a group. The team wasn't satisfied with their performance yesterday and came into today with a competitive mindset to move up the leaderboard. They played great golf today. To shoot the lowest team score in round 3 and move up 3 spots on the team leaderboard was great. Adversity hit yesterday, and the team responded today. Huge shoutout to Ava for her back-to-back under-par rounds. She played great golf, and it was fun to be a part of. We will take the next week or so to clean up a few things to be ready to compete at the Dolores Black Falcon Invitational."- BGSU Women's Golf Coach Erin Fahey
