Greenwood, S.C. – Women's Golf opened up the 23-24 season this week at the Meredith Insurance Fall Kickoff with a 10th place finish.
The Crusaders boasted a pair of sophomores in the lineup including Brenna Miller who finished 29th overall. Miller finished the tournament with total of 231, compiling scores of 78, 79 and 74. Nicole Kramer finished second on the team and 36th overall with scores of 78, 81 and 74.
Kaitlyn Hagler finished 56th overall with scores of 81, 82, and 76 in her final round. She totaled a 239 for the tournament. Mattie Padgett and Aubrey Merriman finished 58th and 71st following three trips out. Padgett shot a 76, 77, and 87 while Merriman finished with an 83, 84, and 81.
"Even though we finished 10 out of 17 the ladies of the ngu golf team finished first among the 8 Conference Carolinas teams. After a nervous start they finished strong and held their own against some of the top ranked teams in the nation. Starting 2 freshmen and 2 sophomores, we may be young but they have good tournament experiences with their summer schedules and they worked hard this summer to be ready for collegiate competition. The previous school 18 hole record that was set at. 307 last year was broke again in the last round and now set at 305. There is a lot of upside to this NGU Women's golf team!"
North Greenville will be back in action on September 25th at the King Invitational in Bristol.
