On the women’s side, Annalyn Lovell (Oneida, Illinois) finished in 29th place with her second straight round of +32 103. She was the only competitor for the Scots on the women’s team so Monmouth did not have a team score.
The Scots next play in the Midwest Region Classic in Kansasville, Wisconsin. Both the men and women’s teams will compete in the 2-day event on Friday and Saturday.
