NC State Wraps Up ACC Championship

NC State Wraps Up ACC Championship


PAWLEYS ISLAND, S.C. – The NC State women’s golf team wrapped up the final round of the ACC Championship’s stroke play session on Friday, finishing the week in a tie for seventh place alongside Virginia Tech.

This was the Wolfpack’s best performance at the ACC Championship since the 2017 season, which was also the last time the tournament was held at The Reserve Golf Club. 

 

NC State’s low score on the day came from Lauren Olivares Leon, who fired a three-over par score of 75 to round out her week. Olivares Leon, the Pack’s lone freshman, finished the week in a tie for 24th-place individually.

 

After posting a season-low round on Thursday, Lea Klimentova shot a six-over par 78 to finish the week in a tie for tenth place. Klimentova continued what has been an impressive string of tournaments after last week’s 3-0 effort at the Wolfpack Match Play. The two-over par performance on the week was Klimentova’s best ACC Championship outing of her career.

 

Isabel Amezcua and Inja Fric each shot 79 (+7) on Friday, with Fric finishing the week in a tie for 30th place and Amezcua finishing in a tie for 44th.

 

Senior Natalie Armbruester rounded out the NC State lineup, tallying her second 76 (+4) of the week.

 

After finishing in the top four of stroke play, Wake Forest, Florida State, Duke, and Virginia will each advance to the match play semifinal session, which is set to begin on Saturday, April 16.

 

Head coach Page Marsh‘s squad will now await its NCAA Regional Championship fate, looking to make 72-team field for the 19th time in the last 20 seasons.
