February 21, 2017:  The Daytona State College Women's Golf Team continued their solid play in their 2^nd event of the spring season at the JU Amelia Island Collegiate.  The Lady Falcons posted rounds of 302-287-288 (877) to finish 4 shots behind tournament winner Mercer University who shot rounds of 297-286-290 (873) and 1 shot behind 2^nd place Campbell University who posted scores of 292-287-290 (876).   "This was a very exciting finish, as it came down to the last couple of holes for the team and individual title," said Coach Laura Brown.  It was really fun to watch and I knew we had a chance when Grace St-Germain and Kaye Kwon both eagled the 15^th hole and we were within 2 shots of the lead. We came up a few shots short of the title, but I am very happy for the team and was impressed with the way they played especially in the 2^nd and 3^rd rounds. To play the final 36 holes at 1 under as a team is very solid and this was truly a team effort."

Freshman Jiwon Jeon led the Falcons with a second place finish with scores of 71-69-71 (211) and Grace St-Germain posted scores of 73-73-68 (214) to finish in third place individually.  Jeon finished just 1 stroke behind tournament winner Annelie Sjoholm from Campbell University who posted scores of 70-71-69.  "Jiwon and Grace played great and I am very proud of both of their efforts, Coach Brown stated.  Jiwon struck the ball really well and just came up 1 shot short of a victory.  The individual title actually came down to the final hole and it was very exciting. Grace had a fantastic final round of 68 to move her from 7^th place to 3^rd place individually.  Grace's 68 was her lowest round of the year and she played fantastic."  Other finishers for the Falcons include Kaye Kwon (81-71-75), Kendall Johnson (77-80-74) and Katie Veale with scores of 82-74-81. 

The Lady Falcons return to action March 5-6 at the UNF Collegiate hosted by University of North Florida at Jacksonville Golf and Country Club in Jacksonville, FL.
