Bulldogs End First Round of Greenville Regional Preview In Top 10
October 17, 2016 | Women's Golf
GREENVILLE, N.C. – Mississippi State women's golf vaulted into a tie for ninth at the Greenville Regional Preview before darkness cut short the Bulldogs' second round.
MSU started out strong, ending the first round with a 315. That tally tied Iowa for ninth place, only five shots out of the Top 5.
Sophomore Katie Holt paced the Bulldogs in a tie for fifth with a 74. Starting at No. 13, Holt overcame a 2-over start by playing her next five holes at 2-under.
"I had to constantly remind myself of the big picture today. We had a lot of golf to play today, and I made sure I didn't let one bad shot determine the rest of my day," Holt said. "There were some really tricky hole locations out there today, so staying patient with the greens was key. The biggest part for me today was accepting that sometimes a bogey was going to happen, letting it go and moving on to the next hole."
Holt sat three shots back of first-round leaders Connie Jaffrey of Kansas State and Virginia Tech's Jessica Spicer.
Jessica Peng ended her day just two strokes behind Holt with a 76 that tied her for 13th.
Ji Eun Baik carded an 82 to end Monday tied for 63rd, while freshman Athena Yang notched an 83 to end the opening round tied for 69th. In her first action of the season, Kendall Wisenbaker opened with an 88 that tied her for 88th.
Playing as an individual, Teri Doss carded a 79 to sit in a tie for 37th.
MSU will play its final three holes of the second round starting at 7:30 a.m. CT Tuesday. The final round will follow immediately.
