STARKVILLE – Golfstat, the leading ranking system in collegiate golf, announced their top 25 rankings on Tuesday. Following the first tournament of the spring, women’s golf is the seventh-best program in the country. MSU used a record-setting performance at the UCF Challenge to move up four spots from 11th.
Golfstat uses Relative Rankings to calculate their rankings each week. Relative Rankings compare each team, one-on-one, against every other team in the country. A percentage value is applied to every one of those decisions. MSU clocks in with a 266/273 comparative record against the field for a 91.5% relative percentage. State holds a 12/15 comparative record against the current top 25.
Mississippi State is one of eight schools currently ranked inside the top 25 with two or more tournament wins in the fall. The Bulldogs went back-to-back in the Mason Rudolph Championship and Blessings Collegiate Invitational. Most recently, State finished second at the UCF Challenge to open up the spring season.
Individually, six Bulldogs are ranked in this week’s Golfstat Top-250 Individual Rankings. Julia Lopez Ramirez leads the pack after another stellar showing in the Maroon and White as she finished second in the UCF Challenge. Izzy Pellot cracked into the top 100 (95) after the best finish of her young Bulldog career on Tuesday, finishing tied for ninth. Abbey Daniel moved up to 109th after finishing tied for 14th as Surapa Janthamunee moves to 112th (tied for 34th in the UCF Challenge). Rounding out the individual rankings this week is Hannah Levi and Ashley Gilliam who sit at 129th and 214th respectively.
The No. 7 Bulldogs will return to the course for The Show hosted by UNLV in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada on February 20-21st.
