October 24, 2023 (Boulder City, Nev.) - The Aztec women’s golf team took eighth place (out of 19 teams) at The Clash at Boulder Creek. SDSU’s tournament was highlighted by freshman Emma Narita who shot a five-under-par 211, the lowest 54-hole score by an Aztec since 2016.

Narita, who tied for 10^th overall, had four birdies and just one bogey and finished with a three-under-par 69 in the final rounds Tuesday. She had just one bogey in her last two rounds. Her 211 (72-70-69) is the lowest by an Aztec freshman since 2013.

Anika Sato was second among Aztecs with a three-over-par 219. She shot a 75 in her first and final round with a 69, which tied a career-best, sandwiched in between.

Stephanie Barbaglia finished one stroke behind Sato and Andrea Gomez was one stroke behind Barbaglia. Barbaglia had a one-over-par 73 Tuesday with three birdies and four bogeys.

Gomez overcame a stretch of three straight bogeys to shoot a 75. She tied for 48^th overall with a 221.

Anna Lina Otten had her best round of the tournament with a 75.

Long Beach State won the championship after shooting an 839 (-25). San Francisco’s Riana Mission was the individual champion with an 11-under-par 205.

STAT OF THE DAY

Emma Narita’s 211 was the lowest score by an Aztec since 2016 (Emma Henrikson) and lowest by a freshman since 2013 (Sirene Blair).
