Lady Cavaliers fight back for 3rd place at Regional Golf Tournament

Montreat’s Lady Cavaliers made a late charge yesterday at the NAIA Region XII Golf Championships, but were not able to defend their regional title. However, they did manage to finish in third place with a team total of 1128, behind 2008 Champions Tennessee Wesleyan (1078), and runner-up Brescia University (1087). Leading the way for Montreat was Amanda Thompson (93-91-96=280), Amber Cody (91-92-99=282), and Melissa Baker (98-92-92=282). All three of these ladies earned All-AAC Honors. Coach David Pennell couldn’t be more proud of the way his ladies fought back in the final rounds.
