Quoting Head Coach Chris Malloy
"I'm very much looking forward to competing for a conference championship this weekend. The guys have prepared well and want to play their best here at the end of the season. This is a challenging golf course and one of the best in the country, but it presents opportunities to score well and we have to take advantage of them.

"I expect Devin Hernandez to play well at the top of our lineup. He has been consistent this season and can hopefully break through and compete for the individual title. We also have senior Robby Carl in the lineup, whose experience playing in this event before will help us. Devin, Rick and Aaron have played well at times this season and we'll need them to put it together through three rounds for us to be in the running on Tuesday."

Quoting Head Coach Marci Kornegay
"We have spent the entire year preparing for this tournament, especially the past 10 days after the disappointing finish at Ole Miss. We have re-evaluated our weaknesses to pinpoint where we have been losing shots. The energy and momentum heading into this championship is the highest I've see all year and I am excited to see how we perform knowing how much effort has been put into preparation.

"Shena is continuing to play very well and has an unbeatable focus that she will be relying on over the next three rounds.

"Our senior leadership is strong with Ana and Emily. They have competed in every tournament this year and have both individually been feeling much more confident about their swings and mental games.

"If Kelli is able to put her game on cruise control and trust her game plan, she will be a large factor in our success.

"Karli is swinging great and her short game is the best that I've seen it this year. She will just have to stay in the present and not get ahead of herself.

" This will be the last year that the men's and women's championship will be played during the same week at the same site. It will be great to share the experience with the men's team and we Chris Malloy and the team the best of luck. "
