Marshall finished with a team score of 1-under, 287
KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. – The Marshall women's golf team turned in a great final round on Tuesday at the Palmetto Intercollegiate. The Herd scored a combined team score of 1-under 287, the second best mark of the third round.
The Thundering Herd finished in seventh place out of a field of 22 teams.
"What a great way to finish fall season," Herd head coach Brooke Burkhammer said. "Good way to go out and play like we know how. I am so proud of them. A setback is a set up for a comeback and that's what we did today."
Marshall came storming back with a 14-stroke improvement as a team from the second round to the third.
Senior Shelby Brauckmuller improved by seven strokes and ended the day with a 3-under 69, tied for the lowest score in the third round. She also moved up 22 spots on the leaderboard and finished tied for 14th. Brauckmuller began the day with a bogey on her first hole and then proceeded to score four birdies and even par on the rest of the holes. Junior Kerri Parks sank a putt for birdie on her last hole that helped her finish with an even-par 72, and also finished tied for 14th. Junior Stormy Randazzo totaled four birdies on Tuesday and ended the day with a 1-under 71, moving up 12 spots on the leaderboard to finish tied for 29th. Sophomore Torren Kalaskey had a 10-stroke improvement from the second to the third round including sinking a birdie on her second to last hole.
College of Charleston's "A" team came away with the team victory at its home event. The Cougars scored the best team score of the third round with a 3-under 285, that helped the team move up four spots to grab the win by one stroke over Coastal Carolina. Nicole Lorup of Troy held on to her lead from Monday, scoring a 2-under 70 and keeping a three-stroke advantage over Brigitte Thibault of Fresno State.
