■man Women's Golf Set to Break Records Photo by Daniel Hooker enior Sarah Parris will look to lead the Lady ^ats to new heights in the 1999 season. by Daniel Hooker Sports Editor When looking at the fall semester vomen's golf season, one cliche that comes .0 mind is that "you can't judge a book by its cover." Despite a highest team finish >f sixth at the Tennessee Tech Lady Clas- ic, the Lady Catamounts, under first-year lead coach Steve Lott, broke just about .:very existing WCU school record. "Last semester, I think was very successful for Lady Cat golf," commented Coach Steve Lott. "We set a lot of school "ecords, which gives something else to >uild upon. Basically, we played really veil." Lott went on to explain, "In the fall, Me played a lot of top 25 programs. We at iVestern are still in our infancy. It's only mr fourth year." Some of those aforementioned records hat were broken include school records in coring, top-two team rounds, having four 1999 Women's Spring Golf Schedule Feb. 22-23 1999 Carolinas Collegiate Classic Pinehurst, NC Mar. 13-14 Elort Women's Intercollegiate Burlington, NC Apr. 3-4 Eastern Kentucky Lady Colonel Classic Richmond, KY April 18-20 Southern Conference Championships Johnson City, TN players with a lower average than the previous lowest in school history, as well as defeating a Southern Conference opponent in a tournament for the first time in the short school-history. Returning for the last portion of their senior years are Summer Brannock and Carrie Shaffer. Brannock finished last semester with an 83.6 stroke average, while Shaffer posted 86. "Our two seniors and our juniors are playing great. As a matter of a fact, our two top two [golfers] were juniors," commented Lott. That duo of juniors Coach Lott referred to are Jessica Blake and Sarah Parris. Blake, a native of Yearington, Nevada, posted an 84.3 stroke average in nine rounds. Her top finish was nineteenth at the Tennessee Tech Lady Classic. Blackfoot, Idaho, native Sarah Parris posted the lowest stroke average for the Lady Cats in the fall. In nine rounds, she averaged 82.3. Parris recorded a 22nd at the Lady High- lander/Draper Valley Invitational, and team- high 14th at the WCU/Laurel Ridge Intercollegiate. The Lady Catamount golf team uses a 36- hole qualifying round at the Way nes ville Country Club to determine which five strikers will don the purple and gold in representing WCU at tournaments. 1999 Women's Golf Roster Jessica Blake Junior Yearington, Nev.

Drygas competed in nine rounds last semester, finishing with a stroke average of 88.4. The freshmen averaged almost 5 rounds apiece in 1998. Lott also said that Faulk is playing well going into the qualifying rounds. Newcomer Suzanne Shipley, who transfers in from the University of South Carolina-Aiken, will add depth to the team, explained Lott. She comes to Cullowhee with sophomore standing. Concerning this spring semester, Coach Lott stated, "We expect to keep improving. Our goal is to improve our school records and in doing that, we will be able to beat some of the bigger schools." Some of the strengths of the Lady Cats include the portion of the game from the tee to the green, Lott said. "We've changed the way we practice," stated Lott. "We're devoting just as much time in our short game as to our long game." He also said that the short game is about 63 percent of the game of golf. In the Southern Conference, perennial powerhouses Furman, UNC Greensboro, and College of Charleston will look to be the favorites again. "I feel like we'll improve this semester," concluded Lott. "Now, we're grinding towards the Southern Conference Championship in Johnson City, Tennessee. The best WCU has ever done in that tourney is last, so there is only one way and that is up." The Lady Cats will open up their season February 22-23 at the Brian Watts Intercollegiate at the Pinehurst Course #8 in a tournament sponsored by UNC Wilmington and the College of Charleston.
