ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Carding a 1-over par 73 on Tuesday, Fresno State's Harriet Lynch posted a third-place finish at the 2022 Branch Law Firm/Dick McGuire Invitational. The fifth-year senior opened her final season with a 4-under 212 (70-69-73), for the third Top 3 result of her career.
Shooting pars for much of the day, Lynch added two more birdies on Tuesday to give her 12, fifth-most during the tournament. The senior fared well throughout the week on par 3's, shooting a tournament-best 5-under. Her three-round score of 212 was the second lowest of her career.
Freshman Katelyn Lehigh bettered her opening round score of 74 with an even par 72 to close out the tournament, making four birdies on the day. Junior Nicola Kaminski also shot her lowest round of the tournament with a 1-over 73.
Fresno State placed 12th as a team after lowering their score each round. The 'Dogs shot a 35-over par 899 (302-300-899).
Quotes from Head Coach Lisa Ferrero
On the team's play this week…
"It's the first tournament of the year so there are definitely going to be things to improve on and learning moments. We struggled the first two rounds but we regrouped with a team meeting and finished strong. We have things we need to improve on but we have time before we leave for Vail."
On Harriet Lynch's play…
"I'm very proud of Harriet," head coach Lisa Ferrero said. "She has put so much time into her game since the end of last season. I'm glad she got to see her hard work pay off."
On freshman Katelyn Lehigh's first collegiate tournament…
"I'm really proud of Katelyn. It was her first college tournament and she played great. To shoot 74 and then struggle in round 2 and come back with a 72 in your first event, that's huge."
