OVERNIGHT US COLLEGE GOLF

ASHTON IMPROVES IN SECOND
ROUND OF LADY MONARCH
Ashton Ingram from Fort-William, a freshman student at Belmont Abbey College, North Carolina improved by 13 shots with a second-round 82 over a tough, par-73 course of 6,142yd for the Lady Monarch Invitational tournament at the Nansemond River Golf Club at Suffolk, Virginia.
Her aggregate of 177 gave her a final placing of joint 32nd in the field of 46 players.
Team-mate Carley Warrington from Bradwell, England had scores of 81 and 80 for a share of 13th place on 161.
Laura Holmes from Ballina, Co Mayo in Ireland, a freshman student at Old Dominion University, Norfolk in Virginia, finished joint 21st with 81 and 85 for 166.
The tournament was won by Ashley Davis (Old Dominion) with 78 and 74 for 152.
Belmont Abbey, with four freshmen in their line-up and the only non-Division 1 squad in the eight-team field, did better than expected by finishing fourth on 655. Elon University and host college Old Dominion finished joint first on 628, 26 shots ahead of third-placed Longwood.
