"It was a cold fay, cold and cloudy, but we grinded out a better day," Mavericks coach Jay Rees said. "Riley led the way with a 72, Paul 74, Hunter 74 and Brad 74.
"We had a below average putting week and an inconsistent striking week. We have 10 days before we compete again down in Houston. We have to keep doing our wedge work, more putting work and keep creating more opportunities with our ball striking."
UT Arlington will compete in the Redstone Houston Invitational from Feb. 22-23.
