Head Women's Golf Coach Ashley Crane on placing second: "We didn't play quite as well today, but we hung tough and finished strong. We battled through very windy conditions and made the shots when it counted the most.

"To come in second at this event says volumes about the girls and our talent and potential. These girls are amazingly talented and proved it today, beating three teams ranked ahead of us."
