QUOTABLES
"We have a lot of confidence heading into the Big South Championship from our win at The Citadel Match Play tournament. The Conference tournament is three days, so we need to stay patient and focused on our gameplan. We had a great opportunity to play the Patriot Club in the fall, so we are familiar with the course layout. The greens will most likely be a little faster than they were in the fall, so we will focus on speed control during the practice round." - Head Coach Breanne Hall
