HURRICANE, Utah (March 15, 2021) – Junior Michelle Nguyen led the way for the Wyoming Cowgirl Golf Team as it opened up the first day of the BYU Spring Classic. After 36 holes, the Cowgirls sit 68-over with a total score of 644.
Ngyuen completed her first round with a seven-over 79 for a place 49th in the first round. She followed that up with two-round total of 13-over 157-over to sit in a tie for 49th. Senior Erin Sargent went a first round five-over 77 and 11 over-83 for her two round total of 16-over, 160. Fellow teammate sophomore Samantha Hui had a solid first round carding a score of six-over 78 and posted a second round score of ten-over 82 to tie with Sargent.
"A really long and tough day for us," head coach Josey Stender said. "We had difficulty adjusting to the greens and too many unrecoverable errant shots. We are much better team with a lot of fight in us to play well tomorrow."
