GRAND HAVEN, Mich. – The No. 4 Texas A&M women’s golf team was led by Louise Reau’s 2-under 70 that helped lead the team into a tie for second Monday after the first round of the Folds of Honor Collegiate at the American Dunes Golf Club.
“We did a lot of good things out there today,” Head Coach Gerrod Chadwell said. “We weren’t very sharp on the front nine, but we got off to a strong start on the back. I am excited to get out there tomorrow afternoon with a round under our belts. Louise was great and it was no surprise to us because she has been leading us in qualifying this past week. I am very proud of her and the work she put in this summer to get to this point.”
The Maroon & White were four shots back of Kansas (-4) who held onto the lead after 18 holes. The Aggies were tied with FSU at even par, while Arizona (+4) and Duke (+4) rounded out the top five.
Reau held onto a piece of fourth place after Monday’s action. The senior sank birdies on three of her final five holes of the day and was behind Kansas’s Anna Wallin by two strokes heading into the second round.
Preseason All-American Vanessa Borovilos fired a 1-under 71 and stood tied for eighth. Emerie Schartz carded a 1-over 73 in her collegiate debut, giving the freshman a piece of 16th place after the first 18 holes of her career. Cayetana Fernández García-Poggio and Brynn Kort both logged a 2-over 74 and shared 26th place.
The Aggies are scheduled to tee off in the afternoon wave Tuesday with Kort going off first at 12:50 p.m. from No. 1.
