BOULDER, Colo. -- The University of Wyoming women’s golf team finished the first day and the first two rounds of the CU/Heather Farr Invitational Monday, as they sit in a tie with Boise State for 11th-place.
After the Cowgirls first round they had a team total of 306 (+18) but finished the day strong with the second best team event round in UW history with a 294 (+6).
“It was one of the best days we have had as a team from top to bottom, they played great in the second-round today,” said UW head coach Josey Stender.
The Cowgirls were led by freshman Juanita Rico who shot an opening round 78 (+6) but answered with an impressive 69 (-3). With her total of 147 (+3) strokes she is entering the final round tied in 23rd place.
“You always want to play better in the second round on the same day because the hole placement hasn’t changed,” said Stender. “It was really good to see their adjustment, they are really starting to come together.”
Rico was followed by junior Sarah Fogerty who is currently tied for 27th place with a total 148 (+4). Sophomore Jenna Zamprelli enters the final round tied for 37th place, with a total 150 (+6).
The Cowgirl team will hit the links beginning the final round at 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday. “Tomorrow we need to just keep our focus and really finish the tournament on a good note,” finished Stender.
