What Justin Emil Had to Say
"This week was a tough one for all of us. We did not play well enough to compete with anyone this week. Fortunately, we have a good chunk of time to work on some things and begin preparation for our final two tournaments. I take full responsibility for the situation we are in and will work hard for these guys to prepare them for our next opportunity."
Next Up
The Owls will have a month off before returning to the links Apr. 15-16 when they co-host with Houston the Bayou City Collegiate Classic at Golfcrest Country Club in Pearland.
