CATCHINGÂ UP WITH COACH KENNEDY:
"I thought we had a very successful week. We were able to travel east, which is not easy, and beat some very good teams. Toby was incredible today and really carried us. He played a flawless round of golf and to get second in that field is a fantastic result. And once again, everyone played a role in giving us a counting score, which shows how much depth we have."
