Women's Golf Breaks School Record in Hawai'i

Women's Golf Breaks School Record in Hawai'i

KAPOLEI, Hawai'i (EMUEagles.com) – Savannah de Bock finished in the top 10 individually for the fourth time this season while five players fired career-low 54-hole scores to help the Eastern Michigan University women's golf team break the program's low-tournament score to see the Eagles finish strongly at the Rainbow Wahine Invitational. The three-day tournament took place at the Kapolei Golf Course in Kapolei, Hawai'i, Oct. 23-25, with the Eagles placing 11th overall in the 15-team field on the par-72, 6,231-yard course.
 
How It Happened
Eastern continued to improve over the course of the three rounds, carding scores of 300, 290, and 289 to shoot 15-over, 879 and finish 11th overall. Colorado State University (-23) and Kansas State University (-20) took the top two positions in the team standings with Grand Canyon University and the University of California, Irvine tying for third at 9-under.
 
As a team, the Eagles' 879 team score broke the school record of 880 that was set Sept. 21-22, 2015, at the Cardinal Classic. To reach the record, the team shot 289 in the third round to post the fourth-lowest score in program history with the 290 carded in round two tying for the fifth lowest. All told, those two frames marked just the second time this year the Eagles have carded two rounds of 299 or better in the same tournament and the first since the season-opening Leadership and Golf Invitational, Sept. 16-17, in Washington.
 
Individually, de Bock (Ecaussinnes-d'enghien, Belgium/Institut de l'Enfant-Jésus-Lycée/Georgia) was the top finisher for the Eagles once again as the 53rd-ranked player in the NCAA tied for seventh place with a 5-under 211 (72-71-68), marking the fourth consecutive event she has played this year and finished in the top eight individually. After playing all three rounds at or below par, de Bock's 211 ranks tied for the second-best in program history with Anna Watson, who shot the then-school record at the Shirley Spork Invitational at EMU, Oct. 2-3, 2023. De Bock holds the school record after shooting a 204 at the Golfweek Red Sky Classic, Sept. 23-25.
 

 
Historical Notes
» The 879 recorded by the team is a school record, surpassing the 880 scored by the team at the Cardinal Classic, Sept. 21-22, 2015.
» EMU shot 289 in the final round, which is the second-lowest round recorded this year, surpassed only by the 285 in the third round of the Golfweek Red Sky Classic, Sept. 25. It also ranks as the fourth-lowest round in program history. Additionally, the team shot 290 in the second round, which ties for the fifth-lowest score in program history.
» The scores in the final two rounds (290 and 289) mark just the second time this year the Eagles have carded two rounds at 299 or lower in the same tournament. The first came at the Leadership and Golf Invitational with scores of 296 and 297 recorded on Sept. 16 in rounds one and two, respectively.
» Savannah de Bock made it four consecutive tournaments this year in which she finished below par and four consecutive tournaments in which she placed in the top eight. She has now shot par or better in 11-of-12 rounds played in 2024.
» Savannah de Bock's score of 211 tied for the second-best in program history with Anna Watson, who shot the score at the 2023 Shirley Spork Invitational at EMU, Oct. 2-3, 2023. The 211 by Watson was the school record until de Bock shot 204 at the Golfweek Red Sky Classic, Sept. 23-25.
