QUOTABLES
"We are looking forward to competing in Wofford's tournament hosted at Moss Creek. Spending the week in Hilton Head has given us a great opportunity to get extra practice time on Bermuda greens and fairways. Moss Creek has smaller greens that roll at a little quicker pace than we are used to. We will spend today and tomorrow focused on approach shots and speed control to prepare for this weekend." - Head Coach Breanne Hall
