QUOTE BOARD: HEAD COACH TODD OHLMEYER
"Definitely an improvement over yesterday, but we have continued to struggle to finish off rounds which was the case today. We were on pace to have one of the best rounds of the day but handed back too many shots. Hopefully, this will be a springboard to a strong finish to our season."
UP NEXT
The Hilltoppers will be back in action March 27-28 when they host their annual St. Edward's Invitational. The two day, 54-hole tournament will take place at Onion Creek Country Club. Live statistics will be available on www.GoHilltoppers.com
