Quotable from Coach Carter Collins
"Any time you want to put together a good team score, it requires a total team effort. I'm proud of the team effort as we played better as the round came to a close and that's a sign of a team that wants to win and is ready to win. We have given ourselves a chance going in to tomorrow and we are relishing the opportunity."
