Golf team comes in 14th at Nebraska Invitational
You may not have heard this, but there's more than one sport played by the Griz during the fall. Golf happens to be one of those other, little-known sports. For some reason, we don't have a guy's team. Not that I'd have any chance at all at making it, but it's kind of odd. Anyway, the ladies finished 14th at the Nebraska Invitational.
The University of Montana golf team shot a final-round 314 on Tuesday to finish the Nebraska Invitational in 14th overall with a 54-hole total of 964. The Grizzlies third-round score was their best of the tournament, having carded a 331 and a 319 on Monday’s first day at the Woodland Hills Golf Club in Eagle, Neb.Texas State took the team title with a 45-over-par 897. TSU’s Linn Gustafsson earned individual medalist honors with a 1-under-par 212, eight strokes better than the trio of players who tied for second.
Freshman Carissa Simmons was Montana’s top finisher in the tournament, firing a final-round 76 to match senior Brittany Williamson for the low tournament round of any Grizzly. Simmons, from Boise, Idaho, finished tied for 26th overall with a three-round total of 233 (77-80-76).
The MontanaGrizzlies.com article fails to mention how many teams were in the tournament. That's not good.
