Virginia In Seventh Place After 36 Holes at Murphey Collegiate

Story Links

Athens, GA – The seventh-ranked Virginia women’s golf team is in seventh place after 36 holes of play at the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic at the University of Georgia Golf Club. Virginia shot 8-over 296 on Saturday for a two-day total of 14-over 590. Alabama leads the field at 1-over 577. Purdue is second at 581.

The tournament is using a best ball format with all five competitors from each school playing together as opposed to seeded players from three or four teams playing in groups. Traditional stroke play scoring is being used to determine an individual champion.

Virginia was led during the second round by a pair of 74s from Brittany Altomare and Eleana Collins. Collins is playing as an individual competitor and her results do not count in the team scoring. Both players are tied for 12th place at 5-over 149.

Calle Nielson shot 77 and dropped back to 19th place at 151. Nicole Agnello and Portland Rose are tied for 39th at 154. Both players shot 76 during the second round. Joy Kim is in 71st place at 157.

Purdue’s Numa Gulyanamitta carries a one shot lead into the final round at even par 144.

The final round of the tournament takes place Sunday. Live scoring is online at Golfstat.com.
