Oldfield Invitational March 17-18.
Space Coast Collegiate Championships: Titans Play Their Cards Close to the Cart
When the ball is a silent thud and the caddy a silent partner, the Eastern Florida State College women’s golf team found themselves elbow‑deep in green‑field excitement. Over three rounds at Duran Golf Club in Viera, they ended up tied for fourth place—right there with Seminole State College and Montevallo. The scoreboard didn’t just show numbers; it told a story of sweat, sliced backs, and the subtle art of putting.
The Verdict on the Course
- Final Totals (Three Rounds): 919 – a scoreboard that leans on the 917‑mark that many have coveted. It canted with the rest of the field, but no one was chasing the championship purple.
- Nova Southwestern’s Reign: A 290 final round pairs with a 4‑over finish, snapping the first overall spot. That means some majors love a playful 4‑over—they’re probably having a good time after all.
- Lynn University: Clear second‑place, because if you’re not laddering there, you’re bouncing off the side of second.
- University of Tampa: A solid third place, a tri‑gold cup that sees more than a modest victory but still earns bragging rights.
Big Names Among the Titans
- Mila Tang: 6th overall, 74 in the last round. That’s a round that even the wind couldn’t catch up to.
- Jenna Barnett: Sophomore, 11th overall, 75 on Tuesday—vividly proving that “Freshman Friday” didn’t keep her pace.
- Ann Burel: 76 and tied for 22nd, but hey, 76 is still “good enough at 725.”
- Brittany Odic: 83, a total of 86 over the three rounds; pride in the drive, humility in the swing.
- Ellen Parker & Cayden Challacombe: 86 and 88, respectively, individually–frequently the numbers sometimes narrate stories deeper than the green.
Noticing the Beautiful Florida‑ish Swings
- Nova Southwestern’s Haruka Muta: 69 in the final round, 4‑under 212 overall, the champion title that flashes like sunshine off the second tee.
- Maria Torres Lobato: A partner row bottom‑section, finishing second. The sibling dynamic on a golf course? No, it’s about perseverance.
- Maxime Holletschek (University of Tampa):) a hole‑in‑one on No. 4 on Tuesday; the event goes from “stick it up the sky” to “drop it right in the green.”
Where We’re Heading Next
The Titans will aim to keep their swing in the spotlight at the Oldfield Invitational on March 17‑18. Expect to see more drive‑by thrills, a few surprises, and a wink from the track record that says “work hard, hit first.”
