Brooklyn Waller was the only Lady Hornets golfer in the match. She shot 94.

“We didn’t play as well as we wanted,” acknowledged Bryant coach Casey Mattox. “They played the ball down though, and the greens were tough for all of them.

“They’ll come back strong from this one,” he asserted.

Bryant’s next outing is Monday, Aug. 12, at the Charging Wildcats Invitational at North Little Rock’s North Hills Country Club.
