“We had some tough conditions with it gusting to 30 mph today. After playing 3 days straight a couple of the guys looked a little fatigued but they battled through it. Really proud of how Austin and Harley battled through their rounds today. Austin was 5 over after 4 holes and made 5 birdies the rest of the way to battle back to his round. Harley doesn’t feel like he is hitting it the best but works extremely hard on his short game. Very proud of how everyone continues to work hard.” Said Coach Andy Soper.
