Eph head coach
Josh Hillman commented on the event today: "Little Threes is always a great event, it's fun to mix some match play into our schedule every year. We didn't get the result we wanted today but everyone fought until every match was over, and that's all you can really ask for. It's a quick turnaround to our conference championships this weekend and we're excited to lock in for that the rest of this week. It's always great to host NESCACs at Taconic."
The Ephs are back in action on Friday for the first of three rounds of the NESCAC Championship hosted at Taconic Golf Club.
