Coach's Corner with Chad Bagley
"We had a really clean front nine today; we gave away a few strokes on the back side that we'll look to clean up tomorrow. It was great to see we had all 5 guys at even par or better through 14 holes. Solid start, but we're looking to play to our full potential and we'll have to finish better tomorrow to achieve that goal."

UP NEXT
Army is back on the tie tomorrow morning at 11:40 a.m. and will be teamed up with Monmouth and Youngstown State.
