Head Coach Kevin Fillman: “Kenny certainly has the ability to post some really low numbers, which he did a few times during the fall.  Those low scores helped us win twice, and he was probably the best player we had out there at the close of those events.  Consistency is the key for him, and he was all over the place.  His wide scoring range indicates that.  Kenny is our best guy at getting the ball in the hole.  We just need to get him to hit a few more fairways and greens to take some pressure off his short game and putter.”
