"The goal all year has been to qualify as a team for the State Tournament. We talk about how every shot counts, and to never give up. Today those words rang true as we qualified on the number. It was a day filled with many ups and downs, but I am super excited for the boys to experience the State Tournament as a team. I want the boys to enjoy the ride, and to make as many memories as they can along the way. Some good golf would be nice too!!" - Coach Mark Keeton
