The fifth annual Blessings Collegiate Invitational tees off for the final day from Johnson, Arkansas in college golf on Wednesday.
The Arkansas women’s golf team should be feeling confident when heading into the final day of the Blessings Collegiate Invitational on Wednesday. Not only are the Razorbacks essentially in their backyard with this course, which is only 15 minutes away from the campus, but they hold the best score for both the men’s and women’s teams of four-under-par. It helped a great deal that the team set an incredible standard in the first round by shooting nine-under-par. The team wasn’t able to replicate that same pace in the second round, shooting five over. But when the next closest team, BYU, shoots +12 on the day, Arkansas is still able to lead by 22 strokes. Mississippi State rounds out the top three sitting at +20.
A lot of that tremendous performance from Arkansas has to do with having four players in the top 10. Maria Jose Marin leads all women’s players shooting six-under-par after a +1 on Tuesday. Her teammate Reagan Zibilski is tied for second with Kansas State’s Carla Bernat. Both sit at three-under-par, but Zibilski is the only player to shoot under par on both days of the tournament. This is the hometown team’s match to lose heading into the final day.
