Quotes from Head Coach Tiffanie Yabut

"This was a special day for our program. We have been chasing a score below 300 and this team earned it today. Everyone committed to our game play of putting ourselves in good position off the tee and in going into greens and they executed well."
"This was a team effort from top to bottom and I'm proud of the fight they had from start to finish. We left some shots out there, so this is only the beginning of a special year."
"Iris was a steady competitor all day and kept putting herself in good position to score well. This team is ready to continue this momentum into tomorrow!"
