Your Lady Knights continued their season with an 11th place finish at their home tournament, The Bluebonnet Classic at Tangle Ridge GC.
The weather was absolutely perfect with no clouds and the temperature reaching the upper 80's.
The Lady Knights struggled the first day posting a 372, to languish in 11th place. They were led by Senior Bailey Bearden who shot a fighting 83.Coach Belfield "The Girls really struggled today, a combination of poor putting and even poorer attitudes were the culprits. When we only have 4 girls playing we have our backs against the wall and you have to have 4 players fighting for each other on every shot, for the first time this year we didn't have that."
The second day brought renewed optimism however and the attitudes were where Northwood Knights players are expected to be.
The results didn't quite show for the Knights however as they continued their struggles on the greens and were unable to get anything going.
"We shot a 364, but it was about as bad as we could score. We just didn't do a good job of getting the ball in the hole!! The main thing is that our long games were better and our attitudes and outlook was back to where it should be and normally is!! We have to continue to take away the positives and learn from the things we didn't do quite so well, we have 4 girls that are slowly progressing in the hopes of winning nationals and these road bumps will only help us grow stronger."
The Lady Knights finished in 11th place out of 14 teams. Bailey Bearden led the team (83-86), Carol Galindo posted (88-84), Kirstie Krueger (97-92) and Nicola Jeffries (104-102).
The Lady Knights continue their season at the OBU Invitational in Shawnee, Oklahoma.
