No. 1 Duke Blitzes 17-Team Field To Capture Its Second Bryan National Collegiate Title In Record-Setting Fashion
4/8/2001 1:00:00 AM | Women's Golf
The top-ranked Duke women's golf team set five new tournament records
and saw its top four players all shoot under par as the Blue Devils
claimed the Bryan National Collegiate championship with a
new-tournament record 856 final score today in Brown Summit, NC.
Duke, which held a 10-stroke lead over tournament co-host No. 21 Wake Forest entering today's round, carded a blistering nine-under 279 in the third round, breaking the tournament record of 287 set by Tennessee in yesterday's second round. The Blue Devils' 23-stroke winning margin over Wake Forest (runner-up at 879) is also the largest in the four-year history of the Bryan National; with the previous widest being 13 by Washington in 1999. The three-day tournament was played on the Par-72, 6,074-yard Bryan Park Champions Course.
Duke's 856 winning score breaks its own tournament record of 894, set in 1998 when the Blue Devils won the inaugural tournament. They also claimed the top two spots on the leaderboard, as Candy Hannemann set a new-tournament record with a 209 54-hole score after shooting 68 in the final round today, while Virada Nirapathpongporn, tied with Hannemann after two rounds, took runner-up honors with a 212.
Wake Forest's 879 final score was the second-best 54-hole score in school history (the record is 877 in the 1995 Lady Tar Heel Invitational), as the Demon Deacons placed two in the top-five. Marta Prieto's third-place score of 215 ties for the third-best 54-hole score in school history, while Nuria Clau shot a 215 for fifth. Tennessee's Young-A Yang, who shot a tournament record 65 in yesterday's second round, carded 69 today for a 214 to place third.
No. 15 Oklahoma State took third at 885, while No. 17 Purdue topped No. 6 Tennessee by one stroke for fourth at 888. Furman took sixth at 894, Memphis was seventh at 902, Florida State came in eighth at 910, while UNC-Chapel Hill placed ninth at 914.
Kentucky and Louisville both tied 10th at 922, while Miami was one stroke back in 12th at 923, and South Carolina was 13th at 924. Penn State placed 14th with a 928, one stroke better than tournament co-host UNCG, 15th at 929 (315-309-305). Charleston placed 16th at 957, while first-year program NC State rounded out the 17th team field with a 969.
Other Duke players carding sub-par rounds on Sunday were freshman Leigh Anne Hardin (69) and sophomore Kristina Engstrom (71). Hardin finished in tied for seventh place, while Engstrom posted a tied for 17th finish. Hardin's three-under-par round of 69 was a career best at Duke.
Senior Kalen Anderson finished the weekend in tied for 12th place after posting a 73 on the final day. Sophomore Maria Garcia-Estrada fired a 70 on Sunday as an individual, but had to withdrawal on Saturday so she didn't finish in the final standings.
The Blue Devils will be off until April 20-22 as they will travel to Orlando, Fla. to compete in the ACC Championships.
