Women's Golf Finishes Strong at Pac-12 Preview


KAILUA-KONA, Haw. – Sun Devil Women’s Golf ended the Fall season in impressive fashion, putting together a strong final round at the Pac-12 Preview.

Arizona State (-5/871) set a program record on Monday and got back on track today by delivering the lowest round of any team. Two of the three days the Sun Devils were the best team in Hawaii, building confidence in their final tournament of the Fall season. Head Coach Missy Farr-Kaye‘s team turned-in arguably their most impressive performance yet, finishing fourth at the Pac-12 Preview. When all was said and done, they trailed only No. 1 Stanford, No. 6 Oregon, and No. 13 Arizona in the team standings. It was a 285 (-7) that helped them solidify their positioning, as the Maroon & Gold were three strokes better than any other team in the final round. ASU did their best work on the par five opportunities, finishing an incredible 22-under to lead the entire field in scoring average on those holes.

The success was not limited to just the team, as several individuals shined at the Pac-12 Preview. Ashley Menne was the highest-finishing Sun Devil, earning a tie for fourth place. It is her seventh career Top-10 finish and fourth in the Top-5, as she ends her Fall on a high note. Menne capped the tournament with a 70 (-3) after shooting a 66 on Monday, book-ending her week with masterful rounds. Joining Menne in shooting under par was Beth Coulter, who carded a 72 (-1) to move up five spots. She slid into a tie for 15th, the best finish of her young career.

Arizona State would not have been able to capture fourth place without the contributions of Grace Summerhays throughout the week, as she held the lowest score on the team through two rounds. Calynne Rosholt had the second-best round of the day for the Sun Devils, shooting a 71 (-2) to move up 11 spots on the leaderboard. She moved into a tie with teammate Paula Schulz-Hanssen, who also shot under par at 72 (-1) to match a career-high and cement a career-best finish (T-32nd).

The Sun Devils will get a well-deserved break over the next two months, not competing until a matchup with Denver and Vanderbilt on January 15 to open up the Spring…
