Friday's Tee Times & Pairings
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – The Bowling Green women's golf team will round out the regular season with a pair of events this weekend. On Friday, April 14, the Falcons will take on Cleveland State and Youngstown State in the Pine Hills Shootout, and will complete the weekend on Saturday, April 15 with the fifth annual Spring Challenge Cup against Ohio.
The Falcons will begin the weekend in a 2 p.m. tee time on Friday at the par-72, 5,995 yard Pine Hills Golf Club. Bowling Green will feature a play six, count four lineup led by sophomore Erin Fahey, followed by freshman Jessica Madry, junior Madelynn Swank, sophomore Julia Durkin, senior Fran Rodriguez, and rounded out by Miranda Dubler, while sophomore Sarah Kern will compete as an individual. Saturday's lineup will be dependent on Friday's competition and pairings for the match play with Ohio.
The Spring Challenge Cup will be held at the par-72, 6,029 yard Lancaster Country Club and will mark the fifth match play challenge between the pair of conference rivals. Although Ohio claimed the Cup in 2010 by a 9-3 mark, and again in 2011 by a score of 10-2, the Falcons have come out on top since 2012. In Findlay, Ohio in 2012, Bowling Green won by an 8-2 margin before following it up with another victory in 2013 in Rio Verde, Ariz. by a 7-5 mark. Since then, the Falcons have had possession of the Cup and will look to bring it back to Bowling Green with another victory this weekend.
Coming off of another team-leading performance at the seventh annual Dolores Black Falcon Invitational is sophomore Erin Fahey. The native of Austin, Texas posted the highest individual finish of the year for the Bowling Green squad when she tied for third overall by a score of 153, +9. The score is her highest individual finish of the year, and was reached by rounds of 77 and 76 and three birdies with 22 pars. On the season, Fahey has carded a low round of 72 twice, and has finished on top of the Bowling Green lineup in five events.
Most recently, freshman Jessica Madry also earned her highest finish of the year when she tied for sixth overall in the field of 60 players at the Falcon Invitational. The Houston, Texas native marked a tournament-leading 24 par scores over the two days of action on her way to carding a score of 156, +12. In the 2016-17 campaign, Madry has carded a low round of 75 in the ORU/SFA Spring Break Shootout.
Junior Madelynn Swank is coming off a 164, +20 performance at the Dolores Black Falcon Invitational by two rounds of 82, in which she earned two birdies. Earlier this season, Swank shot a low round of 76 at the Cardinal Classic in September, and has recently carded a 78 in back-to-back events this spring in the ORU/SFA Spring Break Shootout and Rio Verde Invitational.
Returning to the team lineup is sophomore Julia Durkin, who posted one of just two eagles in the Dolores Black Falcon Invitational on her way to carding a two-day total of 158, +14. The mark earned Durkin her highest finish of the season when she placed 11th overall. Earlier this season, Durkin marked a season-low round of 77 at the ORU/SFA Spring Break Shootout, in which she ultimately scored 243, +27.
After competing individually in the Falcon Invitational, senior Fran Rodriguez will fill the number five spot in the Bowling Green lineup this week. A native of Flower Mound, Texas, Rodriguez excelled in the first round of play last week with a season-best mark of 73 after the first 18-holes of competition, ultimately finishing with a score of 161, +17. At the KZoo Classic in October, Rodriguez had posted her former season-low score of 77.
Rounding out the play six, count four lineup for the Falcons will be junior Miranda Dubler. A native of Mason, Ohio, Dubler made her first appearance in the team lineup in last week's Falcon Invitational and posted a score of 163, +19 by rounds of 82 and 81. Dubler tallied 19 par scores, while the round of 81 marked a new season-best. In the Dayton Fall individual, Dubler competed as an individual where she earned a score of 177, +37.
Competing individually for the Falcons this weekend will be sophomore Sarah Kern, who most recently posted a score of 174, +30 in the Dolores Black Falcon Invitational. Kern's first round of 85 marked her lowest score since the Dayton Fall Invitational in October 2016. On the season, Kern had posted a low round of 74 at the Cardinal Classic in September.
Final results for both events will be posted on Golfstat.com.
The weekend will mark the final action of the regular season for the Bowling Green women's golf program, before they take on the Mid-American Conference Championships from April 21-23.
