Texas A&M coach J.T. Higgins shows off the championship trophy Saturday.
" I couldn't have drawn it up any better. I love the team. They battled their butts off all day and I just tried bringing it up. That was the hardest thing when it was slipping away. I was more discouraged for the guys on the team than for myself."
-- A&M senior Bronson Burgoon
"Andrew [Landry] made a run at the end and Bronson [Burgoon] hit a great shot. That's what golf is and these kids will remember it for the rest of their life."
-- Arkansas head coach Brad McMakin
"I came up and looked at the green and the pin and I said this is the exact same pin as the final round when we watched Georgia make three birdies right here, playing it off this hill and rolling right down it. Anything to the right is going to funnel right to the hole, and assistant coach Jonathan Dismuke picked the right club for him and he hit a great shot."
-- A&M head coach J.T. Higgins
"I'm just really pumped up how it came down to the final hole. I just knew I had to dig down a little bit to come back. I felt I could get this whole match back to square and I did. He just hit a great shot and there is nothing I can do about that."
-- Arkansas senior Andrew Landry
"The last four or five holes was pretty stressful, but actually I wasn't feeling it until the last one. I kept figuring that by the last one Bronson was going to win one of them. He saved the best for last. What can you say. That was fantastic. What a great tournament."
-- Texas A&M head coach J.T. Higgins
