10/2/2022 7:03:00 PM | Women's Golf
Virginia Beach, Va. – The Maroon and Gold women's golf team put together a team record round score of seventeen-under par (263), paving the way to 2nd place in the Evie Odom Invitational. Freshman Luisamariana Mesones secured a runner-up placement and broke the University of Minnesota's 18-hole record with her third-round score of eight-under par (62), the same record she broke just last week.
College of Charleston finished in 1st place with a team score of three-over par (291-274-278--843) while the University of Minnesota ranked 2nd with a team score of five-over par (307-275-263--845).
Quotable:
"Today was by far one of the top highlights of my coaching career, to shoot 17 under as a team is a record breaking day!! We got off to a good start and it just got better and better as the round went on," said coach Rhyll Brinsmead. "This team feeds off good energy and the momentum we felt today was contagious. I am so proud of this group for staying the course this whole event and never losing faith in their ability to go low. Mariana has now shot course record 8 under par rounds in back to back events, and Bella posted her collegiate low round of 7 under. The seniors continue to lead by example and I cannot wait for our next event."
Notable:
Luisamariana Mesones rewrote the history books by collecting eight birdies in the third round, four of which came from holes 14 through 18. She finished the round with a score of eight-under par (62). This incredible performance lifted her up to 2nd place in the Evie Odom Invitational with a three-round score of 73-68-62—203.
Fellow freshman Isabella McCauley tallied five of her seven birdies in the front-9, ending the day with a score of seven-under par (63). She placed 5th in her third collegiate tournament with a three-round score of 77-67-63—207.
Emma Carpenter notched two birdies and was at par in the back-9 excluding a birdie in the last hole, recording a score of one-under par (69). Her three-round score of 76-69-69—214 put her into a tie for 14th.
Grace Curran rounded out the event with two birdies from holes 15 through 18, closing out the day at par (70). She tied for 53rd, compiling a three-round score of 81-71-70—222.
Leah Herzog earned four of her five birdies in the front-9, completing the third round with a score of one-under par (69). With a three-round score of 82-73-69—224, she ranked in a tie for 58th.
