WGOLF: Best leads Cascades women’s golf to capture second consecutive bronze medal at Canada West Championships

Morgan Best finished tied for seventh individually at one over, as the UFV Cascades golf team captured their second consecutive bronze medal at the Canada West Golf Championships on Tuesday in Kelowna.

The two-day event held at the Okanagan golf club started strong for UFV, as Best shot a one-under round of 72 to find herself with a share of the lead after round one. Lucy Park and Coral Hamade each posted rounds of +5 to score in the count three format to put the team in the mix.

Park posted the Cascades top day two score on Tuesday, emphasized by an eagle on 17 to finish one-over on the round and 12th individually. Best continued her strong play as well, finishing the final round at two-over to land at 7th individually at the tournament for the second straight year. Avery Biggar was the third counting UFV golfer on the day with a round of 83.

The Cascades combined score of +22 left them four strokes back of the host UBCO Heat, while the UBC Thunderbirds captured first prize with a combined score of -16.

Best, who earned Canada West Second-Team All-Star honours at the event, finished at +1 (147). Park scored +6 (152) in the two-round tournament, while Hamade finished in a tie for 18th at +21 (167). Biggar (+24, 170), and Mckenna Farlin (+76, 222) rounded out the Cascades entrants.
