SHOAL CREEK, Ala. – In its opening competition of the spring, the Mississippi State women's golf team placed second in the Shootout at Shoal Creek held at the Shoal Creek Golf Course right outside Birmingham.
The Bulldogs posted 19 birdies in the opening round of the year, which led head coach Ginger Brown-Lemm's squad to their 3-over par, 291 second-place finish. Auburn claimed the team title, while Ole Miss finished third.
Lemm-Brown was excited to see her team's offseason work pay off on a tough course in a competitive field.
"I am super proud of our commitment and resilience on a very difficult course with challenging conditions. We proved all the wedge work we have done in the offseason to be a strong contributor to our scoring today. We started the day 3-under par in the first two holes and 4-under par in the last two holes. We are showing significant signs of growth for this young squad."
Freshman Hannah Levi led MSU, tying for third. She fired five birdies, three of those being on the back nine, and finished 1-under par.
"I can't express how much of a blessing it was to play at Shoal Creek this weekend," said Levi. "The way I played today was a great start to the season and a real confidence booster. I am really excited for the rest of the season with this very talented team."
Sophomore Aubree Jones, along with teammate Blair Stockett, tied for ninth shooting a 1-over par 73. Stockett found some momentum on the back nine, birdying three out of the last five holes.
Senior Katie Holt finished tied for 11th overall, shooting a 2-over par 74, while, Clara Moyano finished 17th with a 6-over par 78.
Lauren Miller, who played as an individual, finished tied for 15th at 4-over par.
Auburn's Brooke Sansom was the tournament's individual champion.
The Bulldogs will return to action Feb. 25 at the Westbrook Invitational in Peoria, Arizona.
