From the Coaches Eye - Hovland's Analysis
"It was a disappointing week at the UCF Challenge. We came up short in our goal of being competitive with some of the best teams in the country," said head coach Kelly Hovland. "But we had a great performance from Patricie to finish (-2) to lead the team. We will use this next week to build off of our first event of the long spring season and be ready to go to Houston for another opportunity to battle in another strong field!"
Up Next
The Terrapins will return to action in precisely two weeks (Feb. 21-23) at the Icon Invitational in Houston, TX.
