Men’s and Women’s Golf Finish Fall Season

SALADO, TEXAS – The LeTourneau University men’s and women’s golf teams concluded their fall schedules Tuesday at the University of Mary Hardin Baylor Fall Invitational.

The YellowJackets, coming off a strong performance at the NCCAA Championships, finished with rounds of 314 and 301.  “It was the end of a long fall season for a team dominated by freshmen.  We didn’t play terrible, but we didn’t play our best either,” said head coach Andy Woodring.

The YellowJackets, 24th in the nation coming into the tournament, were led by Josh Rutland (Gladewater/Sabine HS) and Doug Moorehead’s (Hamilton, OH/Hamilton HS) 36-hole score of 153.  Christian Sarran (Longview/Spring Hill HS) shot a 154 and Adam Harding (Boca Raton, FL/Spanish River HS) shot a 155.  “I think fatigue had set in and it left us a few shots behind where we needed to be in each round,” said the coach.

The LadyJackets finished in ninth place among NCAA Division III teams.  The team shot 408 and 409 during the two-day event.  Lisa Kok (Lynden, WA/Lynden Christian) led the team with rounds of 81 and 88.  This was the last event of the fall season for the team.

Both teams will be back in action in the spring and Woodring is optimistic about each squad.
