“We are lucky to have gotten through as a team.  I know there were places we all could have improved and done better at sectionals.  I hope we can continue to improve and perform well at Regionals,” says McCoy. 

Through their 3rd place finish, the team qualified for the Regional competition, which will be held at Battleground Golf Course in West Lafayette on Saturday, September 25.
