Consistency was key for redshirt freshman Crystle Querol throughout her two rounds of play today shooting a 73 in the first round and a 77 in the second round. Her total score on day 2 was 150.
Querol’s impressive scorecard earned her a spot on the podium of the tournament as she placed third in the two-day event.

Freshman Sadie Kelley played as an individual tournament for her first and started her college golf career tied for 25 place. While sophomore Brea Tyrus finished not too far behind her tied for 34 places.
