TEXAS A&M QUOTES
Head Coach Brian Kortan
On the Friday's round...
"We knew it would take three solid rounds to play matches. The guys certainly did that. Everyone had an impact on our finish. Shiv (Parmar) got us going this week and the rest of the team settled in and did a great job.
"The wind kicked up today and the course continues to get faster and firmer. The guys did a great job working through the round and keeping us in a good position all day. Wheaton (Ennis) and Aaron (Pounds) led us today. They knew what it would take and never blinked."
On heading to match play Saturday...
"We're looking forward to playing an excellent Ole Miss team in match play tomorrow. We love that competitive environment."
