BARTONVILLE, Ill. - Olivia Jang and the Purdue Fort Wayne women's golf team took third at the Coyote Creek Classic on Sunday afternoon (Oct. 8).
Jang had the best tournament of her freshman season, shooting 75-72-72-219. On Sunday, she dropped in four birdies, a week-long best. She birdied two, nine, 14 and 17. This counteracted four bogeys to give her two even rounds in as many days. Her 219 is the program's second-best 54-hole score in its 17-year Division I history.
Adrienne Rohwedder joined Jang in the top-10, shooting 78-77-74-229. Rohwedder tied for eighth thanks to a final round that featured six birdies and seven pars. She birdies holes one, eight, 10, 12, 14 and 17. Her 229 is her best this season. It is also her first top-10 as a Division I player.
As a team, the Mastodons shot 313-308-302-923, which put them comfortably in third place of the nine teams. The 'Dons topped the only other Horizon League team in the field, Green Bay, by 15 strokes.
Hunar Mittal and Anna Olafsdottir were 24th and 26th in the 53-player field. Mittal shot 85-75-78-238, notching birdies on holes one and 13 on Sunday. She added 10 pars. Olafsdottir had no birdies in her final round, but had 13 pars for her 78-84-78-240.
Lillie Cone took 36th after shooting 82-86-84-252. She had seven pars on Sunday.
Bradley won their own event with an 897. Illinois State's Jinyoung Yun won the tournament with a 216.
The Mastodons will take to the course again in two weeks at Evansville's Braun Intercollegiate on October 23.
