No. 4 Lady Cavaliers win tourney, set team record

The No. 4 Virginia women’s golf team won last week’s LSU Golf Classic with its all-time low score at the event.

The Cavaliers won the tournament with a score of 8-under 856, besting their old record of 8-over 872. The win was the second tournament victory in school history, as Virginia topped day one leader Tulane by five strokes.

Four Virginia golfers finished in the top 25. Junior Whitney Neuhauser, who finished fifth with a score of 5-under 211, and sophomore Calle Nielson, who tied for first with 7-under 209, led the squad. Nielson lost a two-hole playoff to Arkansas senior Lucy Nunn.

The Cavaliers look to continue their impressive play March 27 to 29 at the University of Georgia’s Liz Murphey Classic.
