We havent been playing well as a team, head coach Harland Kilborn said. We need to play more consistent golf. Different individuals have been stepping up with some low rounds, but we need to get it together.
This is a strong field and a great golf course. This is a test for the guys to find out who will be able to play at the MVC Championship.
The Redbirds are coming off an eighth place finish at the Wichita State Shocker Classic.
