THOUGHTS FROM THE TOP:
"We are excited to be hosting the inaugural First Coast Classic at Deerwood Country Club. It is a great course and should provide a good test of golf. Our team is motivated to compete again this week after a strong finish at the Paradise Invitational last week. We play at Deerwood often so hopefully we can take advantage of the home course knowledge we have."
-- Head coach Joanne Berglund

UP NEXT
