In regard to the performance in this invite, head coach Chris Seaboch said “I thought we kind of had an off-week of practice, and that carried over to our meet on Saturday. I will admit, the weather was tougher than we’ve played in lately… [and] the Lake Creek Golf Course does have some quirky holes on it.”
The DMACC Women’s Golf Team will take on the Hawkeye Invitational on Oct. 2.
