Women's Golf Ninth at Flagler Fall Slam; Third Round Canceled Due to Course Conditions

| By:
ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. — Embry-Riddle women's golf finished ninth out of 14 teams after two rounds of the Flagler Fall Slam, posting a team total of 629 (+53) at Marsh Creek Country Club in St. Augustine, Fla. The Eagles opened with a 324 (+36) and posted a 305 (+17) in the second round.

Due to course conditions on Tuesday morning, the third and final round was canceled as overnight rain and high tides forced the closure of the course.

Ines Ulloa led the Eagles with a two-round total of 151 (+7) for a share of 14th individually. Ulloa put together rounds of 75 (+3) and 76 (+4) at the par-72, 6,062-yard Marsh Creek CC.

"We're disappointed to have weather conditions cancel round three," head coach Maria Lopez said. "Our team was ready this week and I am so proud of their growth mindset throughout this season."

"The golf course is a tremendous challenge and privilege to play. Our team did an amazing job of adjusting to the fierce wind and difficulty of the course. Strong performance to end the fall season and to catapult us into the spring."

Play was challenging on Monday as wind and marshy course conditions dictated play early. Across all rounds, the average score on Monday was 80.12. However, ERAU faired better in the second round, scoring 19 strokes better than the first round.

Miranda Hernandez followed Ulloa by posting rounds of 81 (+9) and 75 (+3) for a 36-hole total of 156 (+12) for a T-31st placement.

As for the rest of the lineup, Frances Amat sits tied for 45th with a score of 161 (+17) followed by Eden Tsouklaris and Avery Dyer finishing at 164 (+20) for T-57th.

Maria Ruiz De La Herran led the ERAU individual selections tied for 35th with a 157 (+13), shooting 79 (+7) and 78 (+6). Gabby Roth finished day one at 52nd and a 162 (+18) total followed by Ottavia Franzinelli Socini Guelfi at T-57th with a score of 164 (+20).
