Kohler Takes Silver Honors at Lady Moc Womens Golf Classic
LAKELAND, Fla.(women’s golf) — Sophomore Natalie Kohler (Johannesburg, South Africa) shoots 223 two strokes behind the medalists Maria Garcia Austt from Nova
Southeastern to help the Panthers finish 7th out of 14 teams at the 2007 Lady Moc Classic hosted by Florida Southern at the Cleveland Heights Golf and
Country Club. The course was a par 72 and had a 5997 yardage for the three rounds spread out over three days.
“The team is the best I have ever seen them hit the ball and are ready to do something great this season,” stated head coach Janie Farina. “They played
infallibly for a young team and played with a lot of maturity.”
Florida Tech placed two in the top five including Kohler and fellow sophomore Daniela Iacobelli (Satellite Beach, Fla.). Kohler tallied 76 in day one and
came back to shoot a 74 in the next round while hitting the tournament’s only hole in one this season and finishing one stroke better with a 73. Her hole
in one was on the par-3, 131-yard #2. It’s the third time in the last three years there has been a hole in one in this tournament on that same hole.
“The hole in one was the something drastic I needed to do to come from behind to push for a win,” stated Kohler.
“Natalie hit every green in regulation…the hole in one was a perfect shot with only one bounce,” said Farina.
Iacobelli also finished well with a three day tally of 225 shooting an 80-72 and 73 for the 216 par tourney. Iacobelli pulled out Tech’s low round on day
two garnering an even 72.
Senior four-year member of the program Ericka Hildreth (Satellite Beach, Fla.) finished 48th in her first tournament this year. A two sport-athlete and SSC
second team all conference member in soccer broke 80 in day two shooting a 8-79-85 for a 245 finishing 48th out of 73 participants. Freshman Stacy O’Hara
(Orlando, Fla.), hailing from Harmony High School, placed 59th with a 255 for her second collegiate appearance. She shot better each round with a first
round 87, second round 85 and third round 83 for the Classic.
Rounding out the team is recent addition Tabitha Jones (Kernersville, North Carolina), who walked onto the young program this spring. Despite the no score,
Jones did not finish due to a back injury.
“In the past three years as the coach this was the only tournament I enjoyed every day….we averaged 331 as a team last season and have improved our team
average to 317 which is a great accomplishment,” said coach Farina.
