Cardinals Rewrite Record Book Again on Final Day at Spring Break Shootout
March 16, 2021 | Women's Golf
Ball State breaks nearly 8-year-old school record for tournament score
DADE CITY, Fla. -- School records fell this week at Lake Jovita.
Monday it was the 18-hole record. Tuesday it was the 54-hole tournament record.
The Ball State women's golf team finished the Spring Break Shootout with a score of 882. That's six strokes better than the program's previous best mark of 888 set at the Hoosier Fall Invitational in October 2013.
The Cardinals backed up their school-record round of 286 from a day earlier with a score of 295 in Tuesday's final round, led by an even-par 71 from Hadley Moritz and a 1-over 72 from Liz Kim. Kiah Parrott and Morgan Lewis, coming off rounds of 69, closed with 75 and 77, respectively, for the other counting scores on this day.
Moritz (T18), Kim (T21) and Lewis (T21) all finished within a single shot of each other over 54 holes this week to place among the top 25 individually. Kim and Lewis set career bests with 54-hole scores of 221. Moritz shot 220.
Ball State took sixth overall in the 15-team field, just two shots behind fifth-place Troy and three behind fourth-place Florida Gulf Coast. The Cardinals convincingly handled the other four MAC teams in the field – Toledo, Akron, Bowling Green and Ohio – beating them all by at least 24 strokes.
North Florida, the nation's 42nd-ranked team, entered the final day with a share of the lead and pulled away for a six-shot victory with a final total of 857.
Ball State now has two regular season tournaments remaining as it builds toward the MAC Championships. The Cardinals will return to action March 29-30 with Eastern Kentucky's Colonel Classic in Richmond, Kentucky.
