BATAVIA, Ohio - The Purdue Fort Wayne women's golf team won Northern Kentucky's The Julie on Tuesday (March 26) for the program's second tournament victory in its history.
The Mastodons finished with a team score of 306-300-606 to edge IUPUI by one shot. The Mastodons' 606 is also a top-10 mark in the program's 20 years of Division I. To further illustrate the positive changes in the program, the last time the Mastodons won a tournament in 2014, the team score was 659.
The Mastodons topped all five Horizon League schools in the field, three of which were picked tied or higher than the Mastodons in the preseason poll. The only team picked above the 'Dons in the preseason that they did not beat (Oakland) was not in the field.
Freshman Hunar Mittal was the Mastodons' best player in Northern Kentucky's event, turning in a 75-75-149 to tie for third. It was her first top-five finish as a collegian. On Tuesday, She had two birdies on holes three and five to turn in a scorecard with a 74 written on it. She was 1-under on the front nine with a 35, and finished with 12 pars.
Playing from the No. 4 spot, Natalie Papa tied for the Mastodons' best in round two. She finished with an 81-74-155 and tied for 22nd. She had back-to-back birdies on holes four and five, then another on 15. She pitched in 11 pars.
Adrienne Rohwedder tied for ninth in the 82-player field, shooting 76-76-152. She had nothing worse than a bogey in round two and got birdies to fall on holes three and 16. This is the fourth time this season that Rohwedder has finished in the top-10 of an event.
Olivia Jang shot 77-76-153 and tied for 13th. She was even on the back nine on Tuesday, with a birdie on 18 to make up for a bogey on 11. She wrapped up the event with 13 pars in her final round.
Anna Olafsdottir rounded out the lineup with a 78-79-157. She recorded a birdie on hole 12 along with 11 pars tie for 26th.
Lillie Cone competed as an individual, shooting 86-81-167 to tie for 59th.
Purdue Fort Wayne will be back in action on April 7-8 at the Indiana State Invitational before gearing up for the Horizon League Championship on April 20-22.
