PULLMAN, Wash. — BYU women’s golf finished day one of the WSU Cougar Cup in 10th place after shooting a combined 589 (+13) Monday in its first two rounds of the 2019-20 campaign.

“I liked that our second round was better than our first,” said BYU head coach Carrie Roberts. "Anna (Kennedy), Allysha (Mae Mateo) and Annick (Haczkiewicz) all stepped up for us today."

Anna Kennedy led the charge for the Cougars, finishing tied for 22nd after shooting a 72 (E) and 73 (+1) through rounds one and two. Annick Haczkiewicz finished just one stroke behind Kennedy after carding a 75 (+3) in the opening round and a team-low 71 (-1) in the second.

Allysha Mae Mateo finished tied for 36th after shooting a three-over on the day. Naomi Soifua finished tied for 62nd while Kerstin Fotu, who made her BYU debut Monday, currently sits tied for 74th.  

Oregon State leads the 15-team field after day one with two golfers tied for first place. Fellow West Coast Conference teams San Francisco, Pepperdine and Gonzaga finished the day in seventh, tied for 11th and 13th places, respectively.

The tournament will conclude tomorrow with a final round of 18 holes. Live results and the leaderboard are available at Golfstat.com.
