ROUND ONE RESULTS ( PDF) | ROUND TWO LIVE SCORING | ROUND TWO PAIRINGS Â
OXFORD, Miss. – The Kennesaw State women's golf team opened the Rebel Intercollegiate with a 10-over par 298 on a windy Friday (April 3) and are tied for 10th following the first round at the par-72, 6,210-yard Ole Miss Golf Course.
Â
"We had some quality play today, but lacked the depth we needed to really shot low," said head coach
Rhyll Brinsmead. "Our putting continues to hold us back and that is what we will work on this afternoon. This team is a group of such great ball strikers, but making putts is the key to winning events. I am very confident we will improve on today's score tomorrow. It was still a fun day on the course and considering the 35-plus miles per hour wind gusts and I am proud of the way they hung in the there.
Dulcie Sverdloff was clutch for us and I am very pleased for her as the results are coming due to the work she has been putting in."

Sverdloff continued her strong play to lead the Owls with a one-under par 71 in her opening round and is tied for seventh after registering four birdies on the day.
