Liz Murphey Second Round Results (Individuals) 
LEXINGTON, Ky. – Sophomore Heather Lott led the Kentucky women’s golf team on Saturday in Athens, Ga., at the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic held at the University of Georgia Golf Course (par 72, 6,335 yards). The Wildcats, as a team, improved by four strokes from their first round score and finished at 15-over par to enter the final round in 20th place.
Lott, a native of Baton Rouge, La., birdied each of her first two holes, the par 5 17th hole and the par 5 18th hole. Lott led UK in its last tournament, the LSU Tiger Golf Classic, with a 31st-place finish.
“We got off to a better start today with some solid pars and birdies early on,” UK head coach Golda Johansson Borst said. “Unfortunately, we struggled to keep our momentum going through the whole round. Sophomore Heather Lott really stepped up for us today. She made some very important putts throughout her round to score 75. We worked hard after the round on what we needed to build our confidence back up and we will be ready to go out and play better tomorrow.”
Sophomore Ashleigh Albrecht, who led Kentucky after its first round, fired a 9-over par 81 on Saturday. Fellow sophomore Betsie Johnson improved by six strokes from her first round and recorded a 7-over par 79. Freshman Liz Breed carded her second consecutive round of 8-over par and junior Ashlee Rose finished at 11-over par for the round.
The best-ball format used at the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic counts each team’s low score from each hole during the round, not the low four total scores of the day. All five players from each team play together, as opposed to seeded players from three or four teams playing together. The individual champion will still be determined as the player with the best relation-to-par score over the 54 holes played this weekend.
The Wildcats are scheduled to tee off on the 16th hole on Sunday at 8:30 a.m. ET.

Lee-Bentham paces Women’s Golf in round one at Bruin Wave Invitational
Mar 1st
Feb. 28, 2011
SANTA CLARITA, Calif. — Freshman Rebecca Lee-Bentham carded a season-low 1-under-par 71 to pace the Texas Women’s Golf team in round one of the Bruin Wave Invitational at Robinson Ranch Club’s 6,282-yard Valley Course on Monday. Lee-Bentham is tied for sixth place entering Tuesday’s second round.
The Longhorns shot a collective 15-over 303 in the opening round and ended the day tied for fifth place and 22 strokes off the pace of tournament leader UCLA (281, -7).
Teeing off first for UT as the fifth player in the lineup, Lee-Bentham found four birdie opportunities on the 12th, 13th, 17th and 18th holes to make the turn at a blemish-free 4-under. Bogeys on holes one, five, seven and eight returned Lee-Bentham to even par, but a clutch fifth birdie on the ninth hole – her final of the day – resulted in Texas’ lone sub-par round of the afternoon.
Sophomores Haley Stephens and Madison Pressel are tied for 31st place at 4-over 76. Stephens’ scorecard contained three birdies, five bogeys and one double while Pressel’s reflected two birdies, four bogeys and a double bogey.
Sophomore Katelyn Sepmoree (80, +8) trails Stephens and Pressel by two strokes and is tied for 57th. Junior Nicole Vandermade is in 83rd place with an 87 (+15).
The Longhorns are scheduled to tee off tomorrow morning at 10:30 a.m. Central on the first hole. They will be paired alongside eighth-place Stanford (304, +16) and ninth-place Oklahoma State (305, +17).
