Women’s golf team earns fourth-straight berth in NCAA Regionals
April 29, 2013
For the fourth-straight year, the ISU women’s golf team will compete at the NCAA Regionals, which was announced April 19, 2013.
The Cyclones, who are emerging from a third-place finish at the Big 12 Championships, will compete at the Central Regional in Norman, Okla. This will be Iowa State’s eighth NCAA Regional berth overall, having also qualified for four consecutive years from 1993-1996.
But Iowa State is shooting for something bigger: its first NCAA Championship berth in school history.
The Cyclones’ highest finish at an NCAA Regional was 10th place, which they achieved in both 2010 and 2011. Both those times, they fell five shots shy of advancing to the NCAA Championship.
Senior Punpaka Phuntumabamrung is on pace to set the single-season record for lowest stroke average with a current mark of 74.2. She finished second overall at the Big 12s and has carded four top-10 finishes this season.
