AIKEN, S.C. \u2013 At the second annual “More Than Golf” Invitational, the Oakland women’s golf team earned an 11th-place finish at the Old Barnwell Golf Course in Aiken, South Carolina.<\/p>\n
For the first time since the A-Ga-Ming Invitational, junior Lily Bargamian<\/a> led the Golden Grizzlies, posting a top-30 finish and tying for 27th with a 234 (+15). For the second straight invitational, Bargamian excelled in the final two rounds after a slower start, carding a final 36-hole score of 152 (+6). She recorded a team-high seven birdies and finished with a par-5 scoring average of 5.00.\u00a0<\/p>\n Fellow junior Olivia Hemmila<\/a>, who has finished in the top two among Oakland golfers in every event so far this season, tied for 41st with a 239 (+20). Hemmila stayed consistent throughout the three days of play and led the team with the best par-5 scoring average at 4.75 strokes.<\/p>\n Recording her highest team finish of the season, freshman Logan Bentley<\/a> placed third among her teammates with a final score of 246 (+27). Bentley produced Oakland’s only eagle of the invitational in her final round.\u00a0This marked her best performance since the Bradley Coyote Classic, where she competed as an individual and recorded a career-best 234, including a closing-round 74.\u00a0<\/p>\n The remaining two Golden Grizzlies in the team lineup finished within two places of one another. Seniors Paige Scott<\/a> and Grace Boczar<\/a> placed 56th and 58th, respectively, to close out the “More Than Golf” Invitational. For the second consecutive event, Scott opened strong, leading the team on day one with a three-over 76. Throughout the invitational, she posted the team’s best par-3 scoring average at 3.22. Boczar remained steady across her rounds, finishing within two strokes of her previous score each day.<\/p>\n Competing as an individual, freshman Channing Hagen<\/a> finished right behind Scott and Boczar, tying for 59th overall. As the invitational progressed, so did Hagen’s play, with her best round coming on the final day with a 79 (+6) \u2014 her lowest score since the Wolverine Invitational in early September.<\/p>\n OU RESULTS Complete results of the invitational can be found on Clippd<\/a>.<\/p>\n UP NEXT: Oakland will head to southwest Ohio to compete in the NKU Julie Invitational, hosted by fellow Horizon League member Northern Kentucky.<\/p>\n How to Follow Oakland Women’s Golf: For complete information on Oakland Women’s Golf, follow the team on Instagram<\/a> and X at @OaklandWGolf<\/a>.<\/p>\n
