Quoting Coach Ewing
On the opening round of play
"Today was another solid and steady day for our team. Everybody hung tough all day. I thought as a whole we did a great job of staying patient throughout the round. Hannah [Levi's] finish with 4 straight birdies was obviously huge for us to turn a solid day into an even better day. I am proud of our composure up to this point in the week. We just look forward to keeping that up and capitalizing a bit more on our opportunities tomorrow in the final round."
