Kentucky womens golf finishes 14th in Cougar Classic

The Kentucky womens golf team kicked off its 2022-2023 season in the Cougar Classic in Hanahan, South Carolina on Monday.

The two-day event finished up on Tuesday with the par 71 course hosting eighteen different teams from around the country, including SEC schools such as Ole Miss, Tennessee and Georgia.

Kentucky’s lineup would feature seniors Jensen Castle, Maria Villanueva Aperribay, Marissa Wenzler, Lexington native Laney Frye and Clemson transfer Ivy Shepherd, who sat out her spring semester prior to arriving in Lexington after a four-year career in South Carolina.

In the first round, Frye led the Wildcats with a score of 69, enough to tie her for 12th.
