Cowgirl Golf Heads West For Regional Action
Oklahoma State's women's golf team will look to defend its title at the NCAA West Regional this week when it begins play at Lincoln Hills Golf Club in Lincoln, Calif. The tournament will be held May 8-10 with 18 holes being contested each day. The seventh-ranked Cowgirls will compete as the No. 5 seed in the 21-team field and will be paired with Arizona and California during Thursday's first round. The trio will begin play at the par-72, 6,338-yard layout at 9:30 a.m. (PST). The top eight teams and two individuals will advance to the NCAA Championship, which will be held at New Mexico's Championship Course May 20-23. The Cowgirls earned an automatic NCAA berth after their 27-stroke victory at the Big 12 Championship.
OSU In Regional Competition
The Cowgirls are competing in their 16th consecutive NCAA Tournament, and have advanced to the NCAA Championships nine times, including seven consecutive, through regional play. The Cowgirls have finished in the top five in their last three regional appearances and six of their last seven. OSU claimed its first-ever regional title last year at the Entrada at Snow Canyon Country Club in St. George, Utah. This season marks the third time in four years OSU has been in the West Regional and the 11th time overall. The Cowgirls' first eight appearances all came in the West Regional (1993-2000) as well as their 2003, 2005 and 2007 berths.
Regional Rewind ... 2007 NCAA West Regional
Pernilla Lindberg won medalist honors, leading the Oklahoma State women's golf team to a share of the team title at the NCAA West Regional, tying Stanford. The team title was the first for Oklahoma State at an NCAA Regional since the format began in 1993. The best previous finish by the Cowgirls occurred in 2003, when OSU finished second to USC. Amanda Johnson finished in the top-10 individually for the second-straight tournament. Her 218 total is the lowest of her collegiate career. Sarah Bradley struggled during the first round of the tournament but turned in solid scores of 72-73 during the final two rounds to finish 20th individually. Lindberg became just the second Cowgirl in school history to win the individual title at an NCAA Regional. Charlotta Eliasson won medalist honors at the 1994 NCAA West Regional.
