COACH MAYER SAYS...
"We've had a great week down in Orlando qualifying and getting ready for the Collegiate Match Play Championship. We've gotten some strong performances out of our entire lineup. It was great to have our whole team down here and give all the players this kind of opportunity, but the strongest prevail and the five that made it out were definitely the strongest in qualifying this week.
"We're taking a great lineup into the match play. Anything can happen and Kennesaw State is a very strong opponent and we'll have to be on top of our game to manage that so we'll look forward to the opportunity to compete against them and the opportunity to play in this event."
