Lovell, Villa lead LCSC
golf teams to victories
4-17-07
Freshman Joey Lovell and sophomore Juanita Villa posted
the overall low scores to help the Lewis-Clark State
College men’s and women’s golf teams to titles in the
Lewis-Clark State Invitational, which wrapped up play
Tuesday at the Lewiston Golf and Country Club.
Lovell
matched par with a 72 on the final 18 holes on Tuesday,
while Villa carded the low round for the women with a
4-over-par 76.
The
two-day tournament, which features 36 holes on Monday,
saw the LCSC men total a 883 after posting the best team
score on Tuesday with a 301. Montana Tech, with a 303,
finished second overall at 912, followed by Rocky
Mountain at 922.
Lovell, who carded a 1-over-par 217 in the tournament,
won the overall title by two strokes. Teammates Patrick
Cassabonne and Jeff Ray tied for third at 221.
The
invitational was LCSC’s home portion of the conference
tournament. Each golf team in the Frontier Conference
plays host to a 54-hole event and the team scores from
each tourney are combined for an overall score. With
just one tournament left in conference play, which is
next Monday and Tuesday in Salt Lake City, the Warriors
have a team total of 3,548. Montana Tech is second, 17
shots behind, at 3565.
On the
women’s side, Villa continued her strong play from
Monday when she was the only female golfer to break par
with a 70. Her 76 on Tuesday gave her a 54-hole total of
224 and a seven-shot victory. Junior Chantelle Beveridge
was fourth overall at 242 for LCSC, while Samantha
Kluever, a junior, came in at 246.
The
Warrior women finished with a 956 total after carding
their best team round of the tournament with a 315 on
Tuesday. Rocky Mountain, which held the lead entering
the day, shot a team score of 328 to finish at 968.
LCSC
and Rocky Mountain are the only two Frontier Conference
teams to play in each tournament this year, which leaves
them as the only two eligible for the league title.
Rocky Mountain has a 3,200 team total, while LCSC is at
3,223.
