FINAL RESULTS
HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo. -- On Friday, the Cal Poly women's golf team finished the first round of the Ron Moore Intercollegiate tied for fourth place with San Francisco and 16 strokes behind first-place East Tennessee State.
Two days later, the Mustangs were crowned champions of the 15-team event.
Shattering the school record for 54 holes, Cal Poly carded 22 birdies Sunday and compiled a 15-under-par 849 aggregate to win the tournament by eight strokes and lower the school mark by 10 shots. The Mustangs bounced back from a first-round 287 total with a 284 on Saturday and 278 on Sunday. The 278 figure is one shy of the school record.
"This was a GREAT win!" said Cal Poly head coach Sofie Aagaard, "three round of under-par scoring. Minus-1, minus-4 and final round of minus-10. Beating our 54-hole school record by 10 strokes.
"Our players did great at staying committed to our strategy playing this course," Aagaard added. "Ball striking was great and putting improved every day. We minimized damage on missed shots and capitalized on birdie opportunities. Both the second and third rounds got started with a lot of birdies early on, which set the pace for the rest of the round."
Among the teams in the tournament were No. 36 East Tennessee State, No. 50 Denver, No. 76 Kansas and No. 79 Hawai'i, all ranked higher than the No. 106 Mustangs by Golfweek.com last week.
"We beat some higher-ranked and stronger teams this week, which will move us up in the rankings," said Aagaard.
East Tennessee State slipped into second place with back-to-back rounds in the 290s after a first-round 271. San Francisco finished third at 865 while Grand Canyon and host Denver shared fourth place at 866.
The Mustangs notched their 28th title all-time and the 11th in seven seasons under Aagaard.
Leading the way for Cal Poly were freshman Kaylyn Noh and sophomore Nicole Neale, who shared second place with three other golfers at four-under-par 212.
Noh carded her second round of 68 in the three-day 54-hole tournament while Neale checked in with her second 69. On Noh's scorecard Sunday were seven birdies, one bogey and a double-bogey. Neale checked in with five birdies and a pair of bogeys.
Neale topped the field in par-4 scoring at seven under par while Noh was second in total birdies with 15, carding seven birdies in each of the final two rounds.
Kamille Dimayuga, another freshman, also finished in the top 10, recording a final-round even-par 72 on the 6,415-yard course for a two-under-par 214 total and ninth place.
Also scoring for Cal Poly were Caroline Cantlay with a 74 for an even-par 216 total and 15th place, and Jensen Jalufka, competing in her second tournament in two years due to an injury, with a 69 for a 221 total and 39th place, bouncing 19 spots up the leaderboard on the final day.
"Jensen stood out to me this week as she scored a 69 in the last round after a slower start to this event," said Aagaard. "She showed grit and determination as she turned her putting around from the first day and made a lot of birdies today."
Tereza Melecka of East Tennessee State garnered medalist honors with rounds of 69, 70 and 68 for a nine-under-par 207 total, five shots ahead of the five-player runner-up group.
Cal Poly's 55 birdies were the second-most in the tournament while the Mustangs' nine-under-par performance on the par-4 holes was the best.
Noh was third on the par-4 holes at two under par and Dimayuga was fourth at one under par.
Cal Poly plays its final fall tournament Oct. 18-19 at the Ram Classic hosted by Colorado State at the Ptarmigan Country Club in Fort Collins, Colo.
