September 13, 2022 | Women's Golf
CHARLESTON, S.C. āĀ East Carolina posted a 52-over par 904 to finish 18th at the eighth annual Cougar Classic. The two-day, 54-hole event was held at the par-71, 6,269-yard Yeamans Hall Club.
"We fell short of the performance I know we are capable of, but the course played extremely difficult for us and the length made it challenging to score," head coach CC Buford said. "We were too eager early in the rounds with our putting which resulted in many three putts. That took away a lot of confidence and from thereĀ the scoring opportunities diminished."
Ā
Senior Oda Sofie Kilsti led the Pirates posting four-over par 217 and tallied 10 birdies, 12 bogeys and a double bogey to tie for 45th. Freshman Danielle Modder finished 12-over par 225 to tie for 78thĀ in her first collegiate event. Sophomore Andrea Miralles Llopis tied for 92nd, recording 16-over par 229.Ā
Ā
Sophomores Marta Perez (21-over, 234) and Grayson Warren (24-over, 237) rounded out the Pirates roster, finishing 95thĀ and 96threspectively.
Ā
Ole Miss won team honors with a 13-under par 839, eking out Clemson (12-under, 840) by one stroke. Host College of Charleston (849), Florida State (850), Miami (even, 852) and Michigan State (even, 852) rounded out the top five.Ā
"It stings finishing so far below the rest of the field, but if we can learn from the mistakes we made this week we will be ready to turnaround for our trip to Wisconsin this weekend," Buford added.

The Pirates return to action on Sunday, Sept. 18 when they travel to Madison, Wis. to play in the Badger Invitational.
