The Aloha State was not as inviting as its nickname would suggest toward the Idaho women’s golf team in its final showing of the spring regular season.
After the second round at the Anuenue Spring Break Classic in Kapalua, Hawaii, the Vandals sat alone in last place, two strokes behind 12th place East Tennessee State. However, Idaho would be greeted warmly in the final round, leaping to a 10th place finish at The Bay Course from March 27 through 29.
Led by junior Michelle Kim through the first two rounds, then by junior Sophie Hausmann — who finished 18th out of 68 golfers — and freshman Valeria Patino in the final, the Vandals chalked up a 52-over aggregate 916 in a field featuring eight of Golfstat’s top-100 teams.
