HOT SPRINGS, Ark. – A big final day for the Central Arkansas women's golf team lifts the Bears to a first-place finish at the Little Rock Golf Classic Tuesday afternoon. A team score of 1-under 287 lowered UCA's final score to a 4-under 860 for the tournament, solidifying the top-place finish. The 860 is tied for the lowest three-round score in school history, tied with last season's score at the Callaway Gardens Invite, in which the team shot a third-round 280 to finish in first place.
After finishing Day One in second place, the Bears posted two-straight days of the field's best golf to pull ahead into a 13-stroke lead at the end. ULM finished a 9-over 873, with host-school Little Rock rounding out the top-three with a 17-over 881.
Camila Moreno continued to put up strong numbers, maintaining her individual lead and holding onto the top spot at a 4-under 212. Three Bears finished tied for third in Elin Kumlin, Tania Nunez and Karley Whittington.
Kumlin shot an even 72 for a final score of 216, Nunez ended Day Three with a 2-over 74, while Whittington jumped 15 spots in the last round, posting a 3-under 69 to give the team a significant boost.
The first-place finish is the third top-five finish of the fall for the Bears, and the sixth in their last seven events, dating back to last season. UCA ends the fall on a high note, with its next outing not until February.
Tania Nunez was one of three Bears to finish tied for third.
Elin Kumlin shot a third-round 72 to move into third place.
Karley Whittington jumped 15 spots on Day Three to earn a tie for third place.
