It will be interesting to see how we handle it today, but all in all we just have to make sure we finish stronger than we did the day before." The competing golfers for Ohio were Sam Hogan, Matt Daulton, Carson Trafford, Jack Neville, and Will Kates, with Sheil Iyer standing in as the Bobcats substitute. After 18 holes in Alabama, Carson Trafford led the team shooting a 72 and putting him in a tie for 6th place overall. Next for the Bobcats was Sam Hogan tied for 9th place with a score of 73.
