RIO VERDE, Ariz. (EMUEagles.com) – The Eastern Michigan University women's golf team carded a 310 in the final round of the Ninth Annual Rio Verde Invitational to capture a one-stoke victory in the 17-team field here Sunday, March 6, on the par 72, 6,255-yard White Wing Golf Course. The Eagles posted a score of 910 for the tournament (294-306-310). Northern Arizona University finished second with a 911 (309-302-300) and the University of Michigan was third with a team total of 913 (300-308-305).
The victory marks the 15th title in the program's 15-year history and the 11th during Head Coach Sandy Wagner's six-year tenure as head coach. Additionally, the three-day total ranks ninth best in school-history, and is the lowest since the squad tallied a 904 (312-295-297) at the Indiana Invitational, April 10-11, 2010.
EMU finished with three players in the tournament's top 15, including senior Robyn Scott (Auckland, New Zealand-Westlake Girls-Texas Tech Univ.) who tied for second place after firing a 222 (72-74-76). Her three-round total is tied for the 14th lowest 54-hole mark in the program's history, and the best for any EMU student-athlete during the 2010-11 campaign. Overall the second place finish is her third top five finish in 18 career events.
Senior Darby Peters (Lake Orion, Mich.-Lake Orion) carded a 227 (70-79-78) to finish in 10th place out of 90 individuals. Peters' top 10 showing was her 15th in 37 career events. Sophomore Sarah Johnson (Wixom, Mich.-Walled Lake Central) was the final Eagle to place in the top 15, finishing tied for 12th with a career-low 54-hole total of 228 (72-76-80).
Redshirt freshman Alyssa Kwon (Richmond Hills, Ontario-Richmond Hills) turned in a 235 (80-77-781) to tie for 30th place, while freshman Usanee Laopattananont (Bangplee, Thailand-Thai Christian School) added 39th place tie with a score of 237 (80-79-78).
Missouri State University's Catherine Dolan took home medalist honors with a two-over par 218 (73-74-71).
The Eagles will return to action at the Lumberjack Shootout, March 14-16, in Phoenix, Ariz.
