Yellowjackets Complete Grand Canyon Invitational

     Final Results

PHOENIX, Ariz. – The Montana State Billings women’s golf team completed the Grand Canyon Invitational with a team score of 716 on the par 72, 6025-yard Palm Valley Golf Club course.

“I was pleased with the fact we improved from day one to day two,” MSUB head coach Kevin Woodin said. “We had two players post personal bests during the weekend.  They are young, but talented golfers and I look for them to continue to improve.”

Leading the way was Amy Nordeen who carded an opening round of 85, followed by MSUB’s best score for the tournament, 79, in the second round.  Lindsay Erickson fired two round total of 169 and Nicole Salsbery had a 188.  Jessica Boyer and Karrie Black rounded out the team with a 195 and a 205 combined score, respectively.

The Yellowjackets return home this weekend playing at Peter Yegen on Saturday and Briarwood on Sunday as MSUB, Carroll College, Montana State and Rocky Mountain all will compete in a 36-hole event.
