// QUOTING HEAD COACH DOUG MARTIN
On hosting the Bearcat Invitational:
"We're thrilled to welcome another strong field for the Bearcat Invitational. Coldstream is a great host. The support and encouragement their membership gives our players is second to none and that's been great for our players.
"Hosting this event is a special opportunity for our players to play in front family and friends. You only get one home tournament a year in golf and it gives them a chance to compete in familiar surroundings on their home course.
"The course is in extremely good shape and is setting up to be very difficult and challenging this week. Hopefully, that favors us."
