\u201cIt\u2019s nice to get the season started. Shiv and Wheaton played very well on a very challenging layout. We also had a couple of solid rounds from Pounds and Kuvaas this week. We are excited about our match with Texas tomorrow. \u00a0We don\u2019t often play regular season match play. It\u2019s a great opportunity to pick up some more match play experience and see where we are as a team.\u201d<\/p>\n
