Head coach
Ray Kralis was disappointed with todays outcome, but takes the positives with him as he heads to Ireland.
We had a tough day and did not get the low scores we needed to move up, Kralis said. The guys are playing well, we just need to put everything together for all three rounds. We get a chance to see many of these teams again at our next tournament in California, but first we are heading to Ireland to get in a lot of rounds.
The Redbirds will be traveling to Ireland to play some of the countrys most beautiful and challenging courses including: Donegal, Rosses Point, Enniscrone, Ballyliffin, Rosapenna and Carne.
The Birds return to the United States to compete in the Stevenson Ranch Invitational in Turlock Calif., March 21-22.
