Darn, I missed this season preview on the Aggie youtube page the other day because of all the football stuff along with volleyball and soccer and it was 'pushed' far down the page. But better late than never !!! Note that it was made before the recent tournament at Pebble Beach. Note my comments after the video insert.



Recall this is how they finished at Pebble Beach

1 - Team title

1 - Cayetana (Junior)
T2 - Vanessa (Sophomore)
T14 - Brynn (Freshman)
T14 - Natalie (Freshman)
T16 - Sky (Junior)
T23 - Scarlett (Freshman)

Remaining players on team

Avery Zweig (Freshman)
Louise Reau (Junior, transfer)
Mia Nixon (Junior)
Kynadie Adams (Senior)

His intro talking about the end of last season - we fell in a playoff at the NCAA Regional (after having missed the cut in the SEC Tournament). Recall Adela went pro in about November so we did not have our top golfer all Spring AND we had only six players all Spring !! But we now have quality depth, should make a huge difference this year !!!

This all said, I do not recall from the past his using the word 'qualifier' to choose who would play in tournaments. I just figured they played practice rounds and the coaches made the decisions based on play. But the coaches make only one 'coaches choice', the rest of the lineup is their scores in the qualifiers (Top 4). Definitely a great way of deciding who plays in tournaments because every player has a fair chance of playing in tournaments.

I did not know that Louise is injured (back) but should be back mid-semester. And Avery just had a bad qualifier.

Note: I posted the current roster a few weeks ago when it was updated (with Freshmen and transfer) but there were no pics. There are pics now:
