THOUGHTS FROM HEAD COACH POLK BROWN: "The guys played some solid golf both as a team and individually at True Blue, and we want to build on that momentum at TSU. We have had a lot of success there in the past and look to continue that as we build towards the OVC Championships. President's Reserve is an outstanding course that presents a great opportunity for scoring, which can only help build our confidence moving forward."
