WOMEN'S GOLF OPENS AT THE LADY NORTHERN INVITATIONALHoosiers Ranked 24th in Preseason Poll
Tournament Data: The I.U. Women's Golf Team travels to Madison, Wisconsin this Friday to start the 1999-2000 season. The team will be competing in the Lady Northern Golf Invitational, which will be played at the par 72 University Ridge Golf Course. The tournament will span over three days beginning on Friday and concluding on Sunday with 18 holes being played on each day. The Hoosiers will tee-off at 12:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday along with Kent State and will join the rest of the field on Sunday for a 9:00 a.m. shotgun start.
The Teams: (16) Ohio State, Indiana, Illinois, Illinois State, Iowa, Kent State, Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Notre Dame, Northern Illinois, Northwestern, Penn State, Purdue, Southern Illinois, and Wisconsin.
The Hoosiers: The Mastercard Collegiate Golf Rankings rank I.U.
24th in their preseason poll as the 99-00 season begins. Coach Sam Carmichael
starts his 20th season as head coach and will be looking for someone to
fill the big shoes of graduate Erin Carney. Carney, whose credits include
1998 Big 10 Player of the Year, 1998 I.U. Female Athlete of the Year, and
Medalist honors at the 1998 Big 10 Championships, was a big contributor
to the team's success last year and will be truly missed. Senior Theresa
McDermott (79 avg.) and junior Tiffany Fisher (78.4 avg.) will lead a host
of newcomers this season as the team looks to compete for the Big10 crown.
