The Head Coach of UNCW, Cindy Ho believes that the team played a good game. Ho said that their game at the second round afternoon was much better than the game in the morning. Regarding the golf course, the coach said that the course holds greens that are
firm and cannot be duplicated in North Carolina in anyway. The UNCW coach further said that the Donald Ross designed course affected their confidence because of which the team had some bad stretches of golf. The coach further explained that they have now played
the 36-hole course and hopefully would be able to perform a much better game in the next round.
Among those who shone on the individual front was Sofi Hagsund at 24th place with 12 over par. The junior scored a total of 154 after carding an 80 and a 74 in the two rounds. Lori Beth Adams is standing on spot number 45 with her score of 160
after carding 78 and 82. A four way deadlock is seen at the 47th place with Whitney Rhodes being one of the female golfers. The freshman has scored a 161 after carding an 81 and then an improved 80 in the second.
Laverry Kumar was disqualified from the second round after she signed an incorrect score card.
Round three of the Windy City Collegiate Classic is to be held on Tuesday which will further determine the leader board and its rankings. The R3 of this event is expected to finish with a dramatic end and has many fans anxious for the leader board to change.
