LUBAHN'S THOUGHTS
"This will be our first trip back to the Boilermaker in a few years but we've always loved to play down here. We'll get a chance to see some of our fellow Big Ten teams ahead of next week's championship and we'll get another chance to continue to improve as we have during this Spring season. We're hoping that we have a lot of golf ahead of us."
