FRESNO, Calif. ? The University of Colorado women's golf team was unable to rally here Tuesday afternoon and slipped back one spot into a tie for sixth place at the Kitihara Fresno State Invitational at the Copper River Country Club.

“We're just so close, just a few improvements away from winning one of these again,” said CU head coach Anne Kelly. “We have a lot of good things to reflect on; especially what Caljouw and Domi did this week. It just shows that you once again with mediocre play we are still in contention. We have more than one player on this team that can win a tournament and I think we'll see it happen soon. Caljouw and Domi were really competing against a great field of western region teams and I'm happy with that.”
On the individual side, sophomore
“Well I double bogeyed the first hole which wasn't great, but I wasn't going to let that bother me,” said Caljouw. “I kept it going and would birdie then bogey, and it's frustrating because I threw away about three shots. I could have won it easily if not for that. My putter is still working for me, and my approach shots were good today as well.”
“For awhile there I thought
Caljouw was followed by freshman Dominique Pytlewski, who shot 72 in the first round but struggled on the front nine to five-over and then posted a pair of double-bogeys on 16 and 18 to shoot 81 for a two day total of 153. She finished just outside of the top 20 in 21st place, but that ties the best finish of her young career. However that was a less than acceptable result in her estimation.
“Well I bogeyed the first four holes so that was a pretty bad start today,” said Pytlewski. “Coach calmed me down and things got much better on the back until the last three holes. I'm pretty frustrated and disappointed about that. It all comes down to short game, short game, short game and finishing. But at least Lindsay (Caljouw) played some good solid golf today so we can be happy about that.”
Freshman Christine Kim posted a six-stroke improvement from the first round to the second, shooting 75. She was three over on the front, and posted a pair of birdie-bogey combinations on the back nine to stay at even par on the second nine and a two day total of 156. Classmate
Senior
“We got good improvement from Christine and Julie today,” said Kelly. “Hannah didn't have a good tournament but she's a strong player so it will come. She hit it better today than she has lately.”
Lindsay Senger played as an individual and after an opening round 78, she fell to an 81 in round two and a total of 159, good for a tie for 63rd.
“As a team, we pulled it together better today and kept a positive attitude,” said Caljouw. “There's more room for improvement for all of us, and that includes me.”
