WALLMAN'S THOUGHTS
• "This is our second time here we are looking forward to playing this golf course. It has good greens, and I think being patient will help.
• "As for the field, this is our first time seeing Missouri, but we have seen some of the other teams like Wisconsin and Iowa. What we have to remember is It is golf, and we are not playing others directly. The focus for us is to play the golf course to our ability and not worry about the other teams. That is hard to do sometimes so we need to do that and stick to it."
• "The key is we need to be patient and do little things that win tournament."
• "I thought we had a really good week of practice. We honed in on things need to do. We focused on trying to play every shot to best of our ability and score as opposed to just practicing hitting or chips. The game is about getting the ball in hole, so need to practice scoring as well as the other things.
