By Sam Draut–

The spring season for U of L women’s golfer Olivia Cason didn’t begin as well as she would have liked, but Owensboro, Ky. native will end the season where no Cardinal freshman has been before. Cason shot a 3-under-par in three rounds at the NCAA Regional at Bryan, Texas to tie for sixth in the 96-player field and advanced to the NCAA Championship.

After the team had spent nearly two weeks leading up to the NCAA Regional preparing for the course, Cason tallied 15 pars and two birdies in the first round to pace the Cardinals.
