QUOTEWORTHY:
"It was a nice job this week by Phil and Travis. With one guy winning and another just one shot back, it leads to a good team week. Second is good for us in this field but we still made way too many mistakes that are in our control. We will keep working hard and be ready for our next event in Dallas." -- Head coach Scott Schroeder
