QUOTE BOARD: HEAD COACH JENNIFER MCNEIL
"We played another solid round today, but unfortunately we dug ourselves into a large hole after round one and couldn't recover. No doubt we will learn from this and regroup for our final fall tournament."
 
On the play of Benavides:
"Sofi had another great week. She is playing so well, and really does so much for our team confidence. I am really proud of the fall semester she has had so far."
 
UP NEXT
St. Edward's will take a week off before heading to Puerto Rico to compete in the USI Island Getaway. It is the second straight season the Hilltoppers have competed in the tournament hosted by Illinois-Springfield.
