QUOTING COACH MENZEL
“This finish really hurts, and I know our team is disappointed. We had a tough year competitively, but I can say we battled until the last hole today. We caught a little momentum on the back side today, but we were having to try to come back from a slow start. This team has put in a lot of hard work this year, but this group knows they need to get after it this summer and come back ready to compete stronger in the fall.”

QUOTING LIZARAZU
“It was really exciting to play in my first Big Ten Tournament. The course was in really good shape and the rough weather conditions demanded commitment in every shot. Although it wasn’t my best tournament, I still learned a lot.”
