ìThe young gentlemen did what I asked them to do and that was to get better,î coach Mitch Mullins said. ìIf you followed their scores throughout the spring their scores did reflect that. Now their real golf season begins and that is this summer. They know if they want to continue to get better they need to put in a lot of golf before next spring. We want to get back to the level of play where we are a team to be reckoned with.î
