Wednesday: Today we had tee times starting at 12:30. These were easily the hottest tee times a team could ask for. The course proved rough along with the heat. We didn't play as well as we had hoped but are confident that tomorrow will be better. We fell back quite a few places to 15th. After tournament play, there was an awards banquet. This is a NGCA banquet in which awards accomplishments are given in the golf field. Four out of five players made the All-American Scholar team while our very own Ellen Rickert made the the all-region team. It was a pleasant surprise for all of us, and also, a well deserved one.
THursday: We started off with a fairly early tee time at 8:50. This is much more favorable as far as the heat index. We played with Otterbein and Whitworth Colleges. Overall, this was a much improved day performance-wise for us as a team. We managed to climb our way up two positions to 13th place. After play, we settled down with a little Phase 10. An excellent card game if anyone is looking. We went out for dinner at a place called Gator's Dockside with our families. It's always a great time to get all the families together. It's a great way to hang out as a team but also spend time with our number one fans as well. We tee off in the morning again tomorrow. We hope for an even more successful day to push us up a few spots in the rankings.
