Head Coach Kathy Baker-Guadagnino had this to say regarding the girls round today, "The girls seem to be having difficulty on the back nine and the greens are proving a little difficult to read. Inspite of their difficulties, I am proud of the team for finishing strong on the front nine along with their respective back nines. Despite our struggles, we are still roughly 60 strokes ahead of where we were last year at this point. I still believe we can break 310 tomorrow and hopefully move up on the field."
