// COACH CARL ON THE BEARCATS
"It was a tough day on the course today," said head coach Janet Carl. "The team just couldn't get off to a good start. We finally had a few players get it going on the back nine, but we missed a great opportunity today. We need to get some work done before our final event of the fall season this weekend."
