Head Coach Jeff Meyerink's Thoughts –
"When the weather starts in the low 20s and the wind is blowing, it isn't ideal for golf. We had some good scores, Ashton shot a three-round score of 270, the first time this season she has led the team in scoring. Kaylee had a nice third round, shooting an 87. Everyone improved from their second-round scores today and I was really happy to see that. None of the girls never gave up and kept fighting to the end."
Up Next for the Tigers –
The Tigers will host the DWU Spring Invite at Lakeview Golf Course in Mitchell, S.D. Both the men and women will tee off on April 8th in the morning.
