Eddy wins second straight tournament
CARROLLTON, Ga. – For the second time in four tournament appearances with the University of Montevallo golf team, Arin Eddy won the individual championship at the University of West Georgia Invitational Tues., April 7.
Eddy finished with an even-par 216, carding an even-par 72 in the first round, a one-under par 71 in the second round, and a one-over par 73 in the third and final round.
Eddy has now placed in the top 10 in all four of the tournaments she’s competed in for UM and is the stroke leader in the Peach Belt Conference.
The UM sophomore was four strokes better than the second place finisher, Lander’s Sophie Stone. Stone finished with a four-over par 220.
Montevallo finished in second place with a 42-over par 906, which was 12 strokes ahead of the third place finisher.
As a team, this was the Falcons’ third second place finish of the season. Their first round score of 10-over par 298 was the second-lowest team round of the year.
The Falcons will be back in action next weekend at the Peach Belt Conference Championship in Greenwood, S.C. That tournament will run over three days and will start on April 17.
