MONTEREY, Calif. - Junior
Hadley Jennings
(Trenton, Mo.) fired an 81 to lead the Drake women's golf team in second-round
action at the Monterey Bay Invitational on Monday (March 18) at the Del Monte
Golf Club.
With only four
available players in the team competition due to injury, the Bulldogs struggled
to hone their games over the course of Monday's 18 holes carding a 340 total,
to place Drake in fourth place with a 668 score.
"Everyone got off to
a slow start today before we slowly got it together over the back nine," Drake
head coach Leanne Smith commented. "We are continuing to work on our short games and a
lot of that is mental and I'm looking forward to finishing the tournament out
strong tomorrow."
Senior Chelsey Falk
(Glenwood, Minn.) is headlining the Bulldogs' efforts through 36 holes after a
second-round 84 concluded her round with a 163 (79-84) total, good for a
sixth-place tie.
After posting an 84,
sophomore Danielle Brooks (Red Wing, Minn.) is one shot behind
Falk's pace with a 164 (81-83) score, sitting in a tie for 10th.
Jennings is tied for 12th with a 165
(84-81) total, while freshman Katie Clausen (Hinton, Iowa) recorded a 92 to
conclude her round in 29th place with a two-round score of 176 (84-92).
Playing as an individual, sophomore Ashley
Brooks (Red Wing, Minn.) registered a 95, to stand in 32nd place with
a 36-hole mark of 185 (90-95).
Drake concludes
competition at the Monterey Bay Invitational on Tuesday (March 19) starting
with a 10:00 a.m. CT shotgun start.
