Texas A&M Quotes
Head Coach Brian Kortan
On the tournament...
"The finish isn't where we want to be. That's obvious, but there's progress being made and we see it. I'm really pretty confident that it's going to start showing up in the results. The guys fought hard. The golf course is really hard. It's not an easy deal, so this probably isn't the best place to see that progress in the results. It's going to show up here in the near future."
On the work that is ahead of them going into the Louisiana Classics...
"We don't have to go back to the drawing board or anything like that. We've got some talented guys and they are working hard all the time. We'll go out there and create some confidence that they can carry with them to these events. A big part of what Coach Fast and I need to do is help the guys gain some confidence at home and carry it with us on the road and that's what we're going to do the next couple of weeks."
