She's been improving with every round.

I thought Shannon had a decent day by her standards. She had a tough time with her putts, but for her to score a 74 when she is struggling on the greens is pretty good.

I just can't say enough about Shannon. She deserved a first-team selection. I think she had an outstanding year and possibly one of best in school history. We are going to miss her. Aside from her performance week-in and week-out, she was a great leader and mentor for the girls.

I thought both played really solid. Elaine (Harris) had a great week and really proved she can play at the highest level. Shannon (Johnson) continues to play well as she has throughout the spring season, and she has the skills to go the distance.

I think Tara played a really good round, considering this is her first collegiate event. Elaine played a good round but had one bad hole, which really hurt her score. Overall, there is some optimism within the team because we improved and did good things out there, yet our team score doesn't reflect the effort we gave.

I am extremely encouraged by our performance this weekend. We had consistent play top to bottom and showed great balance. I think we are a solid Big Ten team and showed we can compete. We are looking forward to hosting the Big Ten Championships on our home course next weekend.
