BIG SKY RELEASE
FARMINGTON, Utah – Valeria Patino has brought home some hardware, earning Big Sky Conference Women's Golfer of the Week, as announced by the league office on Thursday.
Â
Patino led the Vandals at the BYU at Entrada Classic in St. George, Utah. She finished at 5-over for the tournament, good enough for a tie for seventh place. Patino only got better as the tournament went on, shooting a 2-under 70 in the final round to pace the field. Only two student-athletes broke 70 during the tournament.
Â
The Vandals took fifth overall among an impressive field.
Â
The Vandals were originally scheduled to next travel to Mexico for the Hawkeye-El Tigre Invitational, but that event has been canceled due to concerns over COVID-19. The team has preliminarily scheduled a replacement tournament in Las Vegas next week instead.
