Atlantic Head Coach Kathy Hobson: “This was a great team victory for us as we head into our tournament season leading up to regionals.  McKenna played the front lights out, shooting a 40; she finished with an 89 – very proud of her.  Brooke sank a 25′ putt on #17 for birdie.  She played even on the back 9.  Alyssa and Baylee were steady all day.

As we move forward, our short game still needs improvement.  We need to continue to improve on our chipping and approach shots to the green.  We don’t give ourselves good opportunities on our first putts to make them.

Big outing in Sioux City Wednesday – should be very competitive.  Also good for us to go back to back days with 18 hole tournaments.”
