JOHNSTOWN, Pa. - Lara Dommach and Emily Gottman of the Purdue Fort Wayne women's golf team tied for eighth at the Red Flash Invitational on Tuesday (Oct. 21).
Dommach shot a 2-under 70 in round two, which matched the program record for score in relation to par. Her day featured five birdies, 10 pars and three bogeys. She had birdies on 10, 14 and 18 for a 3-under back nine. She finished strong with a birdie on seven, going even over the last six holes. Her 153 two-round total matched her best after two rounds.
Gottman, who shot 76-77-153, finished in the top-10 for the first time. On the back nine on Tuesday, the freshman was 1-under thanks to birdies on 11 and 13, which came in a stretch of seven bogey-free holes.
Hunar Mittal had her best round of the fall, shooting 73 for a two-day total of 154. After a double-bogey on nine, she worked her way back to even with birdies on 12 and 14. A bogey on 18 was her only blemish the rest of the day, as she parred her last seven holes. She took 13th place.
Lillian Gottman shot 79-77-156 for 15th place. Her second round had nine pars and birdies on hole 10 and her last hole of the day, the 165-yard fifth.
Louise Ekesall took 43rd place with an 82-84-166. Tuesday's round saw her par six holes and birdie the 400-yard sixth.
Natalie Papa played as an individual and took 31st place. She had birdies on holes four and six in round two.
As a team, the Mastodons shot 318-297-615. The 297 on Tuesday was the best 18-hole team score of the season and a top-10 mark in program history. The 'Dons took fourth, just one stroke shy of third.
The Red Flash Invitational was the last event of the fall season for the Mastodons. They will begin the spring season in February.
