She was followed by sophomore Katie Edick (Charlotte High School) with a 188, freshman Lindsay Struble (Battle Creek/Harper Creek High School) with a 197, sophomore Wendy Mickelwait (Middleville/Thornapple Kellogg High School) with a 204, freshman Stephanie Nicolai (Shelbyville/Wayland Union High School) with a 207 and freshman Amanda London (Marshall High School) rounded out the Comets with a 215.

"I am very happy with our play this weekend," said second-year Head Coach Bill Maas. "Kristy had two solid rounds and everyone shot a better round today. We need to continue improve at each tournament."

Following Sunday's round, Olivet will be idle until Monday, Sept. 8 when it participates in the annual Jon Speiss Tournament hosted by Defiance (Ohio) College.
