Quotables from Coach Emily Kuhfeld
"We struggled a bit today but pulled it together at the end and have a lot to be proud of this week. Ansley bounced back from her opening round and her determination almost won her her first title! We have three weeks before our next event, and we are excited to regroup and prepare for the second half of our fall tournament season!"
Next Up
The Eagles have a few weeks off before traveling to the Terrier Intercollegiate Oct. 29-30, hosted by Wofford at the Spartanburg Country Club.
