The NC State women’s golf team concluded its fall season with a sixth-place finish at the Landfall Tradition at the Country Club of Landfall in Wilmington this past weekend.
Three Wolfpack players finished in the top 25 individually as the team set a school record Sunday, surging six places up the leaderboard.
Following a disappointing team round of 311 (+23) Saturday, dropping the team to 12th place, the Pack bounced back with an 18-hole school record score of 279 (-9) in the tournament’s final round.
Freshmen Laura Kowohl and Leonie Bettel, as well as senior Rachael Taylor, led the Wolfpack, each finishing the event with a three-round score of 4-over par, good enough to tie for 24th in the 96-player event.
Junior Sarah Bae shot 9-over par, finishing tied for 42nd place and freshman India Clyburn shot 15-over, tied for 66th.
Taylor and Bettel had the Pack’s best individual rounds, both shooting 68 (-4) on Sunday. State’s other three golfers shot par or better in the final round.
Only one team at the tournament, Michigan State, produced a one-round team score better than the Wolfpack’s Sunday round.
The team returns to action in February at the Lady Puerto Rico Classic in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico.
