Hurricane finishes strong in Las Vegas, Haun fires 67
LAS VEGAS, Nev. – The University of Tulsa women’s golf team carded the second lowest team total in round three of the Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown on Tuesday to move up one spot in the standings and finish the tournament in 16th place. The Golden Hurricane’s 5-under par score of 283 was only bested by the eventual co-first place finisher, Minnesota. Tulsa finished the tournament with an 896 total.
The Hurricane’s Tuesday round featured three golfers finishing under par on the day: Alex Haun with a 5-under 67, Antonia Von Wnuck at 2-under 70 and Nadia Majidizadeh at 71. Their team total was the lowest for the team this fall.
Haun leapt up 21 spots on the leaderboard to finish tied for eighth with the second best round Tuesday. She fired five birdies on the day and counted no bogeys. Haun’s round was the best of her career. Her previous low was a 71 at last year’s UAB Fall Beach Bash tournament.
San Diego State was able to hold on to a share of top team-honors despite the performance by Minnesota. The two squads totaled 863 through the tournament.
The Collegiate Showdown was the last fall tournament for the Hurricane, who will be back on the links in February at the Wisconsin Westbrook Invitational.
