Williamstown, MA -- Williams Women's Golf currently sits in fifth place after round one of the Williams Invitational. Clear skies and rolling fairways allowed only few to go low, while the lightning greens provided a challenge for most. After shooting 306 (+22) the Ephs sit 11 strokes behind the leading team Wellesley College.
The Ephs were led by sophomore Natalie Cheong and first year
Michelle Ding who both shot a smooth 75 (+4). Senior Captain
Gio Kim, on senior day, and Junior
Victoria Kim followed closely behind with strong 76s (+5).
Victoria Kim commented, "The team had a challenging day today with the greens being extra firm. We battled through the gusts of winds and the long day. Excited for tomorrow and looking forward to mooooving day!"
They were followed by sophomore Maryanne Grace with a 77 (+6), Junior Euna Lee shooting 78 (+7), and sophomore Emma Abramson with a 80 (+9). Rounding out the lineup was Junior Jackie Lu who shot 85 (+14).
Assistant coach Bill Kangas noted, "It was a beautiful day at Taconic. Our ball striking was solid, but we weren't able to capitalize on the greens. We are excited to fully execute our games tomorrow in the final day of our one and only home event of the year!"
