Arny Dagsdottir Notches Top-10 Finish in Utah
2/14/2023 5:41:00 PM | Women's Golf
WASHINGTON, Utah - Arny Dagsdottir of the Purdue Fort Wayne women's golf team finished in the top 10 at the Utah Tech Zupas Trailblazer Invitational on Tuesday (Feb. 14). She finished the event with a 77-76-153 for eighth place.
The tournament was cut short due to inclement weather. After a reasonable spring day on Monday, Utah saw rain and snow cover the course, making it unplayable. The scores the teams had recorded in round three were scrapped.
Dagsdottir's eighth-place finish was the best of her career, topping the ninth-place she had at the Dayton Flyer Invitational last fall. In round two, she dropped in 11 pars and a pair of birdies. She birdied the 502-yard 18th and the 470-yard fourth. She was -3 on hole four in two rounds.
Anna Olafsdottir was two strokes back of Dagsdottir to take 14th at the event. She finished with a 78-77-155. She birdied hole 12 to move to even, then had 11 pars after that to finish with a 77.
Laura Caetano took 47th with an 82-84-166. She had three pars in her first four holes, the finished strong with an even performance over the last five holes of her day. She birdied the 353-yard eighth hole. Her sister, Luiza Caetano, was the last score taken for the Mastodons. She turned in a 90-83-173 for 54th. After a rough start, Caetano evened out on the front nine with 1-over 37 after making the turn. She birdied the fifth hole with a two and had six pars.
Natalie Papa rounded out the lineup with a 97-95-192 for 59th. She turned in seven pars.
As a team, the Mastodons improved on day two, shooting 327-320-647. They moved ahead of Idaho State. California Baptist won the event with a 610. CSUN's Gracie Piar was the medalist with a 140.
Purdue Fort Wayne will take the course again in 11 days when they play at the Bright's Creek Women's Intercollegiate on February 25-26.
