Mel Blasi Quotations

They may not be able to go see pro sports teams play, but everything (the players) need to work on their game is right here.

Sometimes a player of his caliber goes through a long dry spell. He's worked really hard and fought through a lot of adversity.

He's been our most consistent ball-striker so far this spring. His (final) round was critical (to us winning).

It's always nice to be able to play at home in front of friends and family. It will be a good opportunity to get all our golfers to play. There will be a strong field with some teams we haven't seen.

I feel confident that we've carried over well from the fall season. It'll be hard to duplicate the type of record we had, but I'm confident.

Golf is a funny game; anything can happen. Our conference is strong and well-balanced. There are no guarantees.

Golf is about playing confidently. It sounds easy to do, but it's not. It took us about three years until we could play confidently at tournaments and get the most out of our games.

They've really adopted a team atmosphere. It's hard to do in golf because someone doesn't pass you the ball, but they're so close that they don't want to let each other down.

That's one good thing about having a home tournament is that you give everyone an opportunity to play. Part of having a good team is having depth and competition in practice. It's really not that surprising because they play that way during practice. We have a really deep team and a lot of really good players.

I'm glad we've been able to finish these last three tournaments playing 54 holes in each one. It gives us a chance to get in a rhythm of playing. Golf is a funny game; anything can happen. Our conference is strong and well-balanced. There are no guarantees.
