HENDERSON, Nev.— Tarleton State Women’s Golf concluded their fall slate with Lou Deltombe earning the Texans eighth top 20 individual finish at The Clash at Boulder Creek hosted by Northern Arizona at the Boulder Creek Golf Club.
The Texans were led by the duo of Deltombe and Gina Chen. Each of the two recorded their first eagle of the fall with a two-under par, three strokes on the ninth hole in the first round.

The 894 is the second lowest team score by the Purple and White this season.
“We fought through the week the best we could, with the current team injury situations,” said head coach Isabel Jimenez. “We had four players counting four scores, every single shot counts, which adds pressure to every single shot. It was a good testing week, we leave with a lot of good feedback to work on during the offseason. We will have a small, deserved break for the rest of the week, and be back to practices the next week.”
