The women’s golf team finished in ninth place at the Big 12 Conference Championship in Austin, Texas. Shooting a three-day total of 952, Kansas finished ahead of Oklahoma, Colorado and Iowa State.
Oklahoma State barely held on to a one-stroke lead with a score of 900, defeating Texas. Baylor placed third, followed by Missouri and Texas A&M.;
The Jayhawks had inconsistent scores. The first day they shot a 311, followed by a 331 on the second. Coach Erin O’Neil blamed high winds for the sudden rise in scores.
“It was very, very windy,” she said, “And it’s a more difficult course when it’s windy. It changed directions a lot. They had a hard time with club selection.”
Junior Chelsey Pryor said the wind may not have made the difference.
“I think coming from Kansas we were pretty used to it,” Pryor said. “I don’t think it bothered us as much as other teams. I think I let a couple bad shots get to me the second round. My mental game let me down.”
On the third day, Kansas turned its game around and improved by 21 strokes, shooting 310.
“I think they did a good job of coming back today,” she said. “It’s always a good sign to improve your score by 21 shots.”
O’Neil said that defeating Oklahoma and Iowa State was a big accomplishment because both teams are ranked higher. She said she would find out whether the Jayhawks received a regional bid today about 2 p.m.
“They are very excited and hopeful,” O’Neil said. “We’ll get back late tonight and I’ll probably just have them come up to the office at two and let them listen.”
