The Valparaiso University men’s golf team opened the Marquette Intercollegiate at Milwaukee Country Club in River Hills, Wis. on Sunday with 36 holes of competition.
How It Happened
Inside the Rounds
Thoughts from Head Coach David Gring
"The start of our first round was pretty poor, with the team playing our first 20 holes, 23 over par. While the rain was a factor for the first nine holes, we need to have a much better start, eliminate the big hole scores and commence the round with some momentum."
"Our execution of shots was simply not very sharp. The team hit the fairways off the tee pretty well, but the irons into the greens were quite inconsistent and we left ourselves in difficult positions around the green. I wasn't happy with the speed of our putts, leaving too many challenging short putts for par or even bogey."
"One of the great things about golf is tomorrow is a new day and we have a fresh start to our third round, a terrific golf course and tournament field. We will look forward to the opportunity to play a lot better and more consistent, across all six guys."
Up Next
