The Saints recorded a fifth place finish for the tournament and showed signs of greatness heading into the heart of their 2019 schedule.Head Coach Alan E. Baxter commented, "After round one, we were tied for first place. We slid in the wrong direction after that. Just recently, Yung was declared eligible and played as an individual. If he was in the top five, I believe we would have come in second as a team. He will help us. He did well for his first college tournament. Scott is knocking the rust off after six years away from college golf as he served a little more than four years in the Marines. This was his second tournament. I am confident he will continue to grow. As a team over all, I believe we have tremendous upside. However, we have a long way to go and a short time to get there. Time to grind."
