THEY SAID IT
SEU Head Coach Todd Ohlmeyer on the final round Sunday ...
"We were close to having the round we needed to move up to fourth or fifth but just made too many big numbers. But, a decent result and a lot of good things from this group."

Ohlmeyer on a big shot from freshman JARED BRAY on nine ...
"The highlight of the day came from JARED BRAY on the famous and difficult par-3 ninth hole - voted one of the top 100 most difficult holes in America. Playing 229 yards, he hit a 4-iron to one foot to make birdie, one of only two birdies made by the 81 players in the field."

WHAT'S NEXT
The Hilltoppers have some time off before heading to Wichitta Falls Oct. 16-17 to compete at the Midwestern State Invitational.
