On what they learned...
"This week, our players learned that they need to minimize the mistakes that cause double bogeys or worse. All of our players had some good stretches of great golf this week - especially Kathleen with her 69. Amy and Petra's games are coming around and we foresee some great scores for them in the near future. Many of the mistakes we made were decision making and commitment to shots; in my opinion things that are easy to work on."
On the tournament...
"The Stanford Intercollegiate always presents us with one of the nation's best fields. The team remains optimistic that they have the skills to play with anyone."
Up Next: The Ducks will take four days off before traveling to Kailua Kona, Hawaii, to participate in the Pac-12 Preview (Oct. 23-24).
