Coach Cindy Ho Says: "It was a solid round overall. The players did a good job navigating the course even though we didn't get a practice round on it. Oak Point is definitely a placement course compared to Osprey Point. Lyberty had an excellent round. She used her length off the tee to her advantage and played the par 5 holes at three-under-par. She ended the day hitting a 4-iron to five feet from 190 yards and made the final birdie after hitting her drive into a lateral water hazard."
