Monday morning proved to be a challenge for everyone. A 2-hour fog delay that was followed by pretty slow play made for a long first round. The second round picked up the pace a little, but we were still unable to finish round two and will have to play 20 holes tomorrow. We are looking for a second round score around 300 if we hold steady to where we are at right now. I think that would move us up the team standings and then we can try and make a final push up the leader board in round three.
I can tell we were shaking off the winter rust in the opening round, even though we have been qualifying all during February, real competition is still different from inter-team qualifying. I'm excited for Tuesday.
We avoided the fog on Tuesday and were able to get started on time...however, we lost a little ground and played the final two holes in +3 as a team to shoot 307.
The final round was very similar to round two, decent ball striking from the group...but getting putts to drop was the challenge...a lot of tap-in pars and a few too many tap-in bogeys. We have just under two weeks to get ready for Cal Baptist!
