SPRINGVALE, Utah – One of Claire Choi's best days as a collegian highlighted the performance of the Santa Clara women's golf at the season-opening Hobble Creek Fall Classic.
Choi carded a 1-over-par 143 (71-72) and sits in a tie for fourth place, just three shots behind leader Jocelyn Chee of California Baptist.
Northern Arizona leads the 17-team field after firing an 11-over 579 (287-292) on the par-71, 6,135-yard Hobble Creek Course. Utah Valley, the host institution, is second at 17-over 585. The Broncos are 10th at 32-over 598 (299-299).
"Our ball striking was pretty good today but we struggled on the greens," head coach Krystal Kelly said.
