Boyd Leads Huskies In First Round At PING/ASU Invitational

PHOENIX – The Washington women's golf team finished the first round of the PING/ASU Invitational in 14th place, having shot a 15-over 303 at Papago Golf Club.
 
The Huskies were led by sophomore Camille Boyd, who is coming off of her first collegiate victory a couple of weeks ago at the Juli Inkster Invitational.
 
Boyd shot an even par 72 and heads into the second of three rounds in a tie for 17th place. She made five birdies, but had one bogey and two doubles to finish even. Jamie Hsieh had the Huskies' next-best round with a 3-over 75.
 
"Obviously a disappointing day today overall," said UW head coach Mary Lou Mulflur. "We are certainly better than we showed today and know what we need to do better tomorrow.
 
"The effort is there we just need to clean up the silly mistakes," Mulflur continued. "I'm proud of Camille for hanging in there after a couple of tough holes."
 
The Huskies will begin Saturday's round two on the 10th hole, beginning at 8:55 a.m. PT. The PING/ASU Invitational field includes five teams ranked in the top-10 in the nation.
