"The guys came out and played well as a team the past couple of days," remarked Head Coach Luke Cureton. "We've talked all fall about winning our home tournament. Our guys have worked really hard this fall, and they deserve this team title. This was our last tournament for the fall season, and it's nice to go out on a win. I was very pleased with Ben's play over the two days. He positioned himself well after his first round and played solidly the second round to take second."

The Lady Warrior golfers competed in the team division for the first time in school history. The ladies finished sixth but are looking forward to the spring season when there will be more tournaments for them to compete as a team. They were led by Katelynn Cantrell, FR from Ulyssess, KS.

This concludes the fall season for the Warrior golfers.
