Megan Furtney leads team tied for 25th
FAYETTEVILLE, AR - The University of Minnesota women's golf team wrapped up the first round of the Blessings Collegiate Invitational today. The team currently sits in 10th place with a day one score of 312 (+24). Megan Furtney leads the team individually with a 4-over-par 76.
Host University Arkansas holds the day one lead with a score of 285 (-3).
Quotable:
"It was just one of those days where the golf course won. This score looks worse than it actually was, this golf course is punishing and I'm actually proud of the way the team kept grinding" said head coach Rhyll Brinsmead. "You can't miss anywhere at The Blessings and we made too many mistakes off the tee. We will make some adjustments before tomorrow and get back at it."
Notable:
Graduate Megan Furtney fired the low round of the day for the Gophers. She carded three birdies and 11 pars during her round of 76 (+4) and finished the day tied for 25th.
Isabella McCauley finished just one shot shy of Furtney, carding a 5-over-par 77. She sits in a tie for 29th heading into round two.
Hailey Loh also finished the day in a tie for 29th shooting a 77 (+5). The senior notched three birdies and seven pars during her round.
Grace Curran rolled home twelve pars today while carding a score of 82 (+10). She finished round one in a tie for 45th.
Freshman Sara Tomaszewski finished the day in 50th with a round one 84 (+12), with two birdies and six pars.
Up Next:
Round two of the Blessings Collegiate Invitational will be held tomorrow, Oct. 3rd. Live scoring will be available on Golfstat.com, and streaming can be found on The Golf Channel from 3:30-6:30 p.m. CT.
