COACHES CORNER:
"It was tough scoring conditions with the wind and cold today. We didn't play well and definitely made too many mistakes around the greens, but to only be six shots out of second place we feel fortunate. We need to clean up some of our mistakes and we expect to move up in the leaderboard tomorrow."

UP NEXT:
The Seahawk Invitational will wrap up tomorrow with competition starting at 9 a.m.
