Saint Benedict was led by senior April Dammann (Glencoe, MN, Glencoe-Silver Lake). Dammann final round score of 83 left her in a tie for fourth individually as she took advantage of two birdies on the front nine. Dammann was followed by junior Nadia Christensen (Tyler, MN, Marshall) who finished her solid weekend by firing an 88. Christenson finished in a tie for fourth individually. Junior Sarah Hupperts (North Oaks, MN, Mounds View) also placed for the Blazers, finishing in 12th individually.

Firing her lowest collegiate round of her career, first-year Karlyn Sturtevant (Baldwin, WI, Baldwin) finished in 15th place individually after her round of 85 today. Stuartevant’s great round left her with a two day total of 180. Rounding out the Blazers was first-year Molly Knutson (Edina, MN, Edina).
