“We had a great week in Florida getting back together as a team and setting our goals for the spring and really looking forward to a great season ahead with a great schedule and an opportunity to reach the postseason,” said Hovland.
Throughout the training trip, Maryland played The Breakers: Ocean Course, Pine Tree Golf Club, PGA National: Champion Course, Bear Lakes Country Club, and The Breakers: Rees Jones Course, including a final-day scrimmage alongside Big Ten’s conference opponent Wisconsin.
