Chris Hartman – TWU head coach
"Our girls had a great day shooting 6 under par on the strength of a 4-hole birdie streak, and 8 birdies in total. At breakfast, they set a goal of getting five birdies… or more, during the round. A good lesson for when setting goals - to always leave the opportunity for……. or better."
