Colorado Takes Fifth at Heather Farr Memorial Invitational

October 03, 2006 | Women's Golf

BROOMFIELD, Colo. ?For the second straight year, the University of Denver women's golf team captured the championship at the University of Colorado Heather Farr Memorial Invitational here on Tuesday afternoon.

 

Denver had a seven-stroke lead over Idaho entering the third and final round of play, and managed to hang on to that lead despite some incredibly windy conditions at the Omni Interlocken Golf Club.  Denver finished with a team total of 900, a giving them a four-stroke margin of victory over Idaho (904).  They were followed by San Jose State (907), Hawai'i (910) and Fresno State and Colorado (919).

 

In the individual competition, Dale Gammie of the University of Hawai'i continued her great success and finished with a five stroke victory over defending champion Emily Hoeper of Denver.  She shot 71 in the first two rounds and wrapped up with an even par 72 to finish the tournament two under par (214). She was followed by Hoeper (78-69-72-219), Stephanie Sherlock of Denver (73-72-75-220), Laura Leuthke of Fresno State (76-72-73-221) and Jenelle Gomez of San Jose State (75-76-73-224).

 

Hosts Colorado finished in fifth after leading the tournament after one round.  The Buffaloes struggled, with senior Hannah Hoch the top team finisher for CU with a 72-78-77-227, good for a tie for 10th.  She was followed by Lindsay Koth (233, t31), Julie Kim and Lindsay Senger (234, t37) and Dominique Pytlewski (239, t51).  Freshman Christine Kim, playing as an individual, finished in a tie for 24th with her total 231 following an 80 in the final round.

 

“We're disappointed that we didn't respond better in spite of the conditions,” said CU head coach Anne Kelly.  “We knew scores would likely be higher today, and they were for the most part, but we had hoped to take advantage of it as opposed to falling victim to it.

 

“I'm happy that Hannah managed a top 10 finish.  Senger and Koth battled hard and stayed close and fought for their scores, and Julie Kim had to make some birdies to get to 80 too.  Domi had a rough day, but she's a freshman and there can sometimes be days like this.  We will learn from it.”

 

Colorado will have next week off before they head to the New Mexico State University Price's Give ?Em Five Invitational.  That tournament will tee off on Monday, Oct. 16 in Las Cruces, N.M.
