Coach Kelli Kamimura on the Season-Opening Tournament: "It's always fun for us to go to a new course and play in new tournaments. We wanted to make some changes in our schedule to change things up and see some teams that we haven't competed against over the last several years. We're excited to get to Wisconsin. It's always exciting to be able to look at a new course with fresh eyes and to come up with a strategy. The team has been working hard, we've had some intense qualifiers, and they're just ready to compete. We can't wait to get things started.
