Quote - Sophomore Hillary Humbaugh

• "I couldn't be more happy with my round. Every part of my game held up against the course, and the longer setup favored my strengths. My drives consistently set me up to hit greens, and I made some good putts to save pars and birdies. I had a great start to the day by eagling my first hole, a long par-5. I am proud of the Lady Tigers for being competitive and stepping up to the challenge today. Overall, I just enjoyed the course and the weather. Thank you to Mr. Aber for allowing us to play such a fun tournament!"

Up Next

• The Tigers return to action on Saturday and Sunday, April 27-28, at the Franklin Lady Grizzly Invitational at The Legends Golf Club in Franklin, Ind.
