CARLSBAD, Calif. – Sophomore All-American Lottie Woad is in third place in the individual standings, and the Seminole Women's Golf Team is in 16th place in the team standings after two rounds of the NCAA Division I Championships on the North Course at the Omni La Costa Resort. Woad is just three strokes behind the overall leader as she plays to win the NCAA Individual Championship and the famed Augusta National Women's Amateur in the same season.
The Seminoles are just two strokes outside of the cutline to advance to the fourth round of stroke play after Sunday’s third round. Following Sunday’s play the top 15 teams along with the top nine individuals not on one of the advancing teams will move on to play in Monday‘s fourth round of stroke play. The NCAA individual champion will be crowned following the fourth round of stroke play. The top eight teams after the four rounds of stroke play will begin match play on Tuesday. Those eight teams will play two rounds of match play (quarterfinals and semifinals) on Tuesday with the winners advancing to the match play championship to determine the NCAA team champion on Wednesday.
Texas A&M moved into the lead in the team standings as the Aggies were one of seven teams to play under par golf on Saturday. The Aggies lead second place Stanford by five strokes.
“We didn’t handle the tough conditions today,” said Head Coach Amy Bond. “The wind kicked up, and the course got very tricky this afternoon. We will play in the afternoon tomorrow, and we’ll know what score we need to hit to advance. We are going to wear our Sunday golds for tomorrow and play Florida State golf.”
Florida State begins play in Sunday just two strokes outside of the cutline of 15th place in the team standings. The Seminoles are just 10 strokes out of the top-10 of the team standings.
Woad carded a second round score of 74 and has a two round total of 139. She is just three strokes behind Adela Cornousek of Texas A&M and only two behind Annabella Pancake of Clemson. Woad carded two birdies during Saturday’s afternoon round after tying her own personal record of 65 in Friday’s first round. With 10 birdies in the first two rounds of the championship, she is tied for second among the 161 golfers in the field for birdies made.
“Lottie continues to play great golf,” said Bond. “She was unlucky on her final hole today but will be successful tomorrow.”
Sophomore Katherine Cook was Florida State’s second-lowest scorer during the game with a 3 over par score of 75. She was even par on her back nine with one birdie and eight holes scored at par or better. Cook played her best golf of her second season as a Seminole over her last 11 holes of the round, as she closed her day at even par.
The Seminoles are scheduled to play with Pepperdine and San Jose State beginning at 3 p.m. ET off of hole No. 1.
