BRADENTON, Fla. – Baylor coach Jay Goble should have been resting in advance of his team’s appearance in the NCAA Championship finals, but he couldn’t turn away from the TV.
A replay of the Bears’ semifinal match against Duke was on late Tuesday.
“I watched it until 12:40 last night,” Goble said. “I couldn’t get enough of it.”
This was a year of firsts for the women’s game. It was the first year that match play was used to determine the team champion; that the women and men played the NCAA Championship on the same course in back-to-back weeks; and that it aired live on Golf Channel.
