"There were some bright spots today," said head coach Ross Cash. "Kingsmill is a long and difficult golf course. 36 holes and walking is also a long and tiresome day. We battled from beginning to end which is basically one of our team rules and is a must. Phoebe has been playing such steady golf since the semester started and really seems to be on autopilot, very self-reliant and confident. If we all put it together tomorrow, we have a chance to get a huge win."
The Bulldogs return to the links tomorrow (Tuesday, Sept. 12) for the final day of the tournament. A shotgun start is scheduled for 9:00 a.m., with live results available here.
