PERRY PARK, Ky. – Another year has passes and but it means the same thing for the Northern Kentucky University women’s golf team, another strong performance at the NKU Spring Invitational.

Alicia Lawrence led the way for the Norse with a brilliant performance at the Perry Park Golf Course. Lawrence, a senior from Williamstown, Ky., shot 76 in both days’ action good enough for a third-place tie individually out of 131 golfers.

Other top performers for the Norse included Sofie Rasmussen (83-76—159), Lyndsey Bevill (79-81—160), Charity Evans (85-75—160), and Alicia Stauffacher (85-81—166).

As a team, NKU finished the 21-team Invitational in fifth place. The Norse were able to improve on a 323 first-round performance by shooting 308 in the second round despite the less-than stellar conditions.

Grand Valley State (313-308—621) took top team honors while Indianapolis’s Kristi Piepenbrink (72-74—146) took the top individual award.

NKU will be back in action on April 20-21 and they travel to Prairie Bluff Golf Course in Lockport, Ill. to take part in the Lewis Aviator Classic.
