Houston grinds out final day to capture UCF Challenge title

ORLANDO, Fla. — When Central Florida head coach Emily Marron attended a college golf camp that featured Stacy Lewis recently, it didn’t take long for the conversation to turn to the tournament Marron’s program hosts each year: the UCF Challenge.

Lewis mentioned that Marron shouldn’t expect Houston to play in that tournament. Lewis’ fiancé, Cougars head coach Gerrod Chadwell, wasn’t sure if playing in a tournament that early in the year would be good for his team.

“He’ll probably play in it and he’ll probably win the thing,” Marron recalled saying.

It’s as if she was holding a crystal ball.
