WHAT THEY SAID:
 
"Today wasn't our day," said Longwood Head Coach Kevin Fillman. "It seemed that we started well and worked our way into contention early, but, for whatever reason, we just weren't able to finish again. We had a pretty candid talk about some things after we got back from Florida, and I really thought we were ready to play a great round today in all phases. It's unfortunate it didn't work out that way."
 
"Scott's round was impressive," Fillman added. "I told the guys at our meeting Sunday night that pars were good scores on this golf course. At that time, I never thought that somebody would make 18 of them though. The fact it happened is actually amazing."
 
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
 
Longwood had the third-best score on Par 3s at 3.17.
 
The Lancers had the fourth-best score on Par 5s at 4.80.
 
The Lancers had the second-most pars in the field with 164.
