Oregon still in contention
at conference tournament
Tournament leader UCLA
sits in first after firing a 308
in the first round of the
conference championships
By Brian Smith
Freelance Reporter
The Oregon women's golf team
stumbled a bit in the opening round
of the 2004 Pacific-10 Champi
onships on Monday.
But the Ducks were not the only
ones to see the teeth of the lengthy
par-72, 6,405-yard Saticoy Country
Club course in Somis, Calif. Team
and individual scores skyrocketed
during the first round, leaving even
tual first-round leader UCLA at 20
over par. The Ducks sit only 12
strokes back in eighth place with a
first-round total of 320.
"We're not particularly pleased with
our score, but by no means have we
lost contact with the rest of the field,"
Oregon head coach Shannon Rouil
lard said. "The course played extreme
ly difficult today and some of the best
golfers in the country shot 80 or high
er. Par was a very good score and that's
what you've got to leam to expect at a
championship event."
Only one golfer, Arizona's Erin
Blasberg, broke par, and only 24
golfers kept their scores below 80.
Blasberg had two birdies, one bogey
and 15 pars for her 1-under 71.
For Oregon, the surprise came when
freshman Kimberly McCready, making
her Pac-10 debut, finished in a tie for
Tim Bobosky Photographer
Junior Johnna Nealy continued her strong Pac-10 championship play after shooting an
opening round 78. Nealy will look to keep the Ducks in contention today in Somis, Calif.
12th place with a 6-over round of 78.
McCready started well, playing her first
nine holes at 2-over par, but stumbled
a bit with a pair of double bogeys on
No. 1 and the troublesome No. 3. She
recovered her round by finishing her
last six holes at even par.
Junior Johnna Nealy also finished
tied for 12th. Nealy, who played well
in last year's tournament, was seven
over par with five holes to go before
rallying with four pars and a birdie
on her second-to-last hole to finish
with a 78.
* The other four Ducks were not able
to break 80. Sophomore Michelle Tim
pani finished tied for 33rd after an
opening round 81, while fellow soph
omore Erin Andrews shot a 83 to finish
tied for 39th. Junior Jess Carlyon —
competing as an individual — and
sophomore Therese Wenslow had a
tournament's worth of struggles in a
single round, shooting a pair of 17-over
89s to finish tied for 54th.
"I would have liked to count on at
least one more score in the 70s and
preferably two more," Rouillard said.
"But we can't hang our heads. We
need to go out there tomorrow and
see if we can't make a few minor ad
justments to save a stroke here and
there as we get more familiar with the
golf course."
The second of the three-round
event will tee off at 8:30 a.m. today
and conclude Wednesday.
