COACH DIJON KNIGHT'S COMMENTS
We are extremely thankful for the opportunity to compete this week in the D-III Showcase. The city of French Lick and Earlham coaches C.D. Hockersmith and Mike Brown did a great job hosting the event. I also would like to thank our Athletic Director Marcie Taylor for allowing our team to compete in this event. Although we did not finish as high as we know we could have, we have many positive takeaways from our overall performance from the last two days. One of those highlights include a career-low round from sophomore Maverik Mollenkopf, who shot a 76 to finish the event. We posted several individual rounds that shows the potential that we have as a team. We need to keep striving for a level of consistency.
