Women’s Golf 14th at Stanford; Brady is 6th 10-17-04 10/17/2004 Vanderbilt’s women’s golf team rebounded from a slow first round to finish in 14th position at the 42nd annual Stanford-Pepsi Invitational Sunday afternoon. Arizona State won the 18-team tournament by shooting 852; the Commodores shot 906 over the difficult part 70 layout for the 54 holes. Results: Team | Individual | Combined Sophomore Chris Brady had another strong event, placing in a tie for sixth at two-over par. She strung together rounds of 72-67-73 to lead her Vanderbilt team. Kristen Svicarovich was not far behind, firing 72-73-74 to tie for 20th place. Vanderbilt freshman Liebelei Lawrence, who struggled Friday with an 84, came back with rounds of 77 and 72. Anastasia Kostina of Washington State was the medalist, shooting five-under 205. “I thought we made a good comeback after our first day put us in quite a hole,” said Vanderbilt Coach Martha Richards Freitag. “I was very impressed with the play of Chris and Kristen and Liebelei came back very well today. I think she learned a lot in this tournament. “Right now our top three golfers are playing steady golf but we need to find consistency in our fourth score,” Freitag continued. “We will have some qualifying during the next week between Julie Bartholomew, Helen Richards and Devon Unkeless to see who we will take to Wilmington in 10 days. They are working hard and learning a lot right now, lessons that I think will begin to pay off for us this spring.” For complete tournament results, check the Stanford athletics web site: http://gostanford.collegesports.com/sports/w-golf/recaps/101704aab.html Day Two Vanderbilt women’s golfer sophomore Chris Brady shot a second-round, three-under par 67 to tie two other golfers for the best score of the day and moved into a tie for fourth place at the Stanford Pepsi Intercollegiate in Stanford, Calif.
