GABBING WITH GROBE
Quotes from head coach Matt Grobe:
On the team's first spring tournament:
"We got a lot of good work in this week. The scores weren't as good as what we wanted but I think we gained some experience and I am looking forward to the Pinehurst Intercollegiate. Alex [Weiss] really played well after getting off to a rocky start in the first round."
