QUOTING HEAD COACH MEGAN MENZEL

“Manuela stayed aggressive all day and was able to make quite a few birdies! She has been working hard on staying present and patient and did a really nice job of that today. She continues to improve each week and her confidence is rising. Brett also had a really solid day and has shown great improvement this spring and continues to have stretches where she is under par. She is getting more confident in those situations and allowing her hard work to pay off.”
