Women's Golf In Hunt Heading To Final Round
3/9/2021 6:28:00 PM | Women's Golf
SAN ANTONIO -Â Junior Katie Finley shot two 1-over 73s and is alone in second place, while the North Texas women are in third place heading to Wednesday's final round of the Maryb S. Kauth Invitational at San Antonio Country Club.
The Mean Green, who entered the tournament ranked No. 29 nationally, are one shot back of second-place Texas Tech (No. 31) and just five back of tournament host and leader UT San Antonio. Finley led the field in birdies in the first two rounds with seven and was tied for second in Par-5 scoring at 1-under par. Finley trails leader Sofia Garcia, of Texas Tech, by four shots heading into the final round.
"We certainly struggled today overall," UNT head coach Michael Akers said. "Katie did a great job and played well in both rounds. Patty had a triple-bogey in Round 1 then had three birdies in a row to make up for it. The good news is, we are in a great position to win. As I love to say, we are right where we want to be. Our tendency is to really play well in the final round."
UNT has three other golfers in the top 20 entering Wednesday's final round, which will begin with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. Junior Patricia Sinolungan is tied for 12th at 6-over, senior Lauren Cox is tied for 17th at 8-over and junior Audrey Tan is tied for 19th at 9-over.
