HANAHAN, S.C.- The NC State women's golf team opened up its 2016-17 season in strong fashion on Sunday at the Cougar Classic, as sophomore India Clyburn fired a three-under par 69 and the Wolfpack carded an 18-hole total of 285 (-3). Both Clyburn and the Pack sit in sixth place among their respective leaderboards.
The team's 18-hole score at Yeamans Hall Club ties the sixth-lowest mark in program history, as the Wolfpack had three players post rounds of even par or better.

Despite making the turn at four-over senior Sarah Bae managed to fire three birdies on the backside to turn in a 74 ( 2), while sophomore Leonie Bettel put together a strong back nine to also post a 74 and round out the Pack's first day of competition.
In the team standings Furman leads the 21-team field with a 10-under par 278, while UNC-CH and Wake Forest round out the top three with scores of 281 (-7) and 282 (-6), respectively.

"The girls played with great heart today and it was fun to watch," said head coach Page Marsh. "The course gave us opportunities and we were able to capitalize on a few. They've been working really hard on their games and being supportive of each other, and it was evident today.
"It's always fun to open the season with a red number, but tomorrow we'll reset and play one shot at a time with passion and resilience."
