Quotable
Towson head women's golf coach Shannon Briggs on Perine's performance.
"Sarah was striking the ball great today and rolling the ball nice on the green. It was effortless for her early and was great to see her play with ease. It's the best feeling to make an eagle and I'm happy for Sarah that she felt this magic today. The ladies can finish strong tomorrow and if given the opportunity I know will play their best in the morning."
