Coach Hamilton on the Horizon League Championships
- "Although our scores were not where they have been in previous tournaments this spring, we still had some very gutsy performances by all of the players."
- "The weather was perfect, the course was in beautiful condition and the greens were smooth and fast. Getting over some of the nerves at first was tough, but when we did, we had some stretches of really good golf."
