Kim shatters RMAC scoring record to win Mustang Women's Fall Intercollegiate

AVONDALE, Ariz. (September 23, 2014) ~ Colorado State University-Pueblo women's golfer Leina Kim (Jr., Saipan, CNMI) continued her remarkable start to the 2014-15 season, winning her third consecutive tournament, while breaking her own Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) scoring record. Kim shot an 11-under 133 to win by 10 strokes at the Mustang Women's Fall Intercollegiate, hosted by Western New Mexico University at Coldwater Golf Club.

Kim's 36-hole total of 133 shatters the old RMAC tournament scoring record of 140, which she set just one week ago at the RMAC #1 Tournament. The junior tallied a tournament-best 12 birdies, compared to just one bogey. Holding a slim two-stroke lead entering play on Tuesday, Kim tallied five birdies and no bogeys to pull away for the 10-shot victory over second-place finishers Allison Howarth of St. Mary's University (Texas) and California Baptist University's Marvi Monsalve.

CSU-Pueblo's Julie Sanchez (Sr., Pueblo, Colo.) posted a second-round score of 1-over 73 to finish in a tie for 18th with an overall mark of 6-over 150. Samantha Geisick (Fr., Greely, Colo.) and Natasha Navarro (So., San Antonio, Texas) each tallied 36-hole scores of 21-over 165 to conclude play in a tie for 68th. Megan McCutcheon (Fr., Monument, Colo.) finished in 82nd, after carding a 34-over 178.

A day after tying the program's single-round record of 302, the ThunderWolves posted a 311 mark on Tuesday. The Pack finished in eighth place, after tallying a final score of 613. California Baptist (587) won the tournament by 13 strokes over Point Loma Nazarene University.

CSU-Pueblo travels to Grand Junction, Colo. next week to take part in the RMAC #2 Tournament at Bookcliff Country Club. The tournament commences Monday morning and will wrap up on Tuesday.
