THE BEST WE’VE SEEN2010-11 SEASON REVIEW


The subhead said it all on the preview for the 2010-11 LSU Women’s Golf Team: “Better Than Ever.” Every school tries to use a catch phrase that goes with their program, not just in women’s golf, but in a lot of sports. This one turned out to be so true as the Lady Tigers had the greatest season in their history, as a senior wrapped up one of the greatest four-year careers in history and a freshman had the best possible season a golfer could have.

Amazing Start In the first three tournaments of the fall season, the Lady Tigers would win once and finish second twice, posting nine rounds under par with a combined score of 51-under par. LSU would win the Mason Rudolph Classic on the site of the 2012 NCAA Championships with a three-day school record total of 21-under 843, thanks to a school record start of 10-under 278 in the opening round. LSU would equal that 278 total again in the final round of the Tar Heel Invitational. Senior Megan McChrystal birdied four of the final five holes to win the NCAA Golf Preview, including the 17th and 18th to score a two-shot victory with a final round of 65 posting a school-record 10-under par total of 206. She would lose in a playoff in the Tar Heel but she was well on her way to topping her own marks for season average and posting a career average number that would be difficult to top. In the Tar Heel, a freshman named Austin Ernst of Seneca, N.C., made her first appearance for the Lady Tigers and put people in the golf world on notice to keep an eye on her as she posted a five-under 211 and a tie for 10th.


LSUThe Best Year Ever


A Title to Start The Spring Ernst helped LSU to a second place finish in the opening event of the spring, the Central District Invitational, becoming the first freshman to win a tournament for the Lady Tigers since 1997. Ernst finished with a three-under 213 (72-67-72). McChrystal finished third at even par 216.

The Post-Season Begins The Lady Tigers had their lineup set when the post-season began in what would be the best post-season over three tournaments the team had in its long history -- seniors McChrystal and Amalie Valle, juniors Jacqueline Hedwall and Tessa Teachman and freshman Ernst. LSU had its best finish in the SEC tournament since 2004 with a third place finish, shooting 23-over 887. Ernst led LSU with a three-over 219 to finish in a tie for ninth and four LSU golfers were in the top 20. For the Lady Tigers, despite not getting putts to drop on the last two days, it was a confidence building trip on the way to the NCAA Central Regional in South Bend, Ind. In the Regional, LSU was not going to forget the year before when they failed to advance to the NCAA Championships by one shot. Needing to be in the top eight, there wasn’t much doubt of LSU’s advancement after two rounds. In fact, LSU was trying to win the tournament by the third round and they finished second behind powerful UCLA, just four shots behind the Bruins. It equaled the best finish ever in an NCAA Regional for the Lady Tigers and sent LSU to the NCAA Division I Championship for the third time in four years. McChrystal won her fifth individual title of her career, tying for the individual title with a two-over 218. For Ernst it was her second top 10 of the post-season with a three-over 219.

On To College Station There was a feeling of confidence when the LSU team left for College Station because 1) of the way the team played in the NCAA Preview and 2) the way the team was playing entering the tournament. LSU put itself in the thick of things in the opening round for the team title and then Ernst put her name at the top of the leaderboard after two rounds after a second-round 66 that included birdies on the final three holes of the round. LSU’s third round was derailed by a two-hour lightening delay that forced the Lady Tigers to come back and finish the round at the first peak of sunlight on Saturday. Ernst had two triples on her card, taking a 77 while Tiffany Lau of UCLA took the lead after a two-hole stretch of hole-in-one, 30-foot birdie. But in a whatever you can do, I can do better type of mentality, Ernst came out later in the afternoon for the final round and aced the second hole and then rolled in a 60-foot birdie on the next hole to take the lead for good. She would finish at seven-under 281 after a second 66 to claim the title and put LSU at its best finishing position in the NCAAs – third, just eight shots away from the title. Better Than Ever? For now the 2010-11 season may well have been the best in the 30-plus years of women’s golf at LSU. It is one that will be tough to top but the 2011-12 team wants to try. Turn the page to find out more.

MEGAN MCCHRYSTAL AMALIE VALLE KAREN BAHNSEN


Why Not Again? The toughest thing to do sometimes in college athletics is to have success on top of success. But after the season the Lady Tigers had in 2011, with three returnees including an NCAA champion, two top transfers from major universities and an incoming freshman continuing the Swedish tradition that the LSU Lady Tigers have drawn from in recent years, there is really no need to think that anything other than another good season is in the cards. LSU is coming off a year where success didn’t come easy, but it came in a way that showed their hard work paid off. It resulted in several record team rounds and a third-place finish in the NCAA Division I Championship, LSU’s best finish ever.

AUSTIN ERNST

2011-12 LSU WOMEN’S GOLF MEDIA GUIDE 77INTRO COACHES PLAYERS REVIEW HISTORY ONLY ONE LSU

Returnees Jacqueline Hedwall returns for her senior season after averaging 74.7 strokes per round in 2011, almost a two stroke reduction in stroke average from the 2010 season. She had nine rounds of par or under and came through with key rounds that helped LSU throughout the year in important tournaments. Hedwall, from Sweden, is a grinder who has played in every LSU tournament her first three years and had a top 30 finish in the NCAA championships with a key round of 73 in the delayed third round. Baton Rouge’s Tessa Teachman comes into her senior year off a top 25 performance in the World University Games in China this past summer. Teachman had one of the biggest rounds of her career at the end of the NCAA Championships, posting a one-over 73 to help LSU move back into third place after 72 holes. She averaged 75.5 stroke per round last year with eight rounds of par or under. The three-time member of the NGCA All-Scholar Team finished in a tie for fourth in a field of 93 in the NCAA Fall Preview with a five-under score of 211. She helped LSU’s win in the Mason Rudolph on the course of the 2012 NCAA Championship with an opening round of five-under 67. The other returnee had a freshman season unlike any other in the history of the LSU women’s program. Austin Ernst captured the NCAA Division I Individual Championship and then backed it up in her first tournament back after a summer of school work by reaching the 18th hole of the semifinals of the United States Women’s Amateur. Ernst fired rounds of 72-66-77-66 to shoot a school record total of seven-under 281 to win the NCAAs and the way she recovered in the final round after a third round that was carried over to Saturday showed the mettle of the young first-year college star. She finished in the top 10 in all three post-season events, the second consecutive year an LSU women’s golfer has achieved that mark. She made her mark in the first event of the spring, the Central District Invitational (three-under 213) when she became the first freshman to win a title for LSU since 1997. She averaged 73.2 for her first season with five top 10s and 14 rounds of par or under, six of those coming in the last rounds of tournaments.

Newcomers The unique thing about the 2011-12 team is that this will be a veteran team in many ways even with half the roster making their LSU debut. But two have experienced Division I college golf at other universities before transferring to Baton Rouge and that makes them extremely ready for the challenges that lie ahead. Lindsay Gahm comes into Baton Rouge after earning Freshman of the Year honors in the Big 10 after leading the Hoosier in stroke average at 75.4. She qualified for the NCAA Central Regional and had a third-place finish with a three-under 213 in the Lady Northern Invitational with a season-best 69 in the second round. She had two other top 10s, including a seventh in the Lady Puerto Rico Classic (75-73-72). The University of San Francisco is where Katrina Hegge played with success for two seasons before coming to Baton Rouge. She averaged 76.7 in both seasons with seven top 10 finishes in her two years, including a victory in the Fresno Lexus Classic at 216 (73-72-71). She finished in the top 10 in both West Coast Conference championship events. LSU’s lone freshman is Sweden’s Madelene Sagstrom. In her pre-college days, she posted 11 wins with 10 second place finishes and is ranked seventh overall in the Swedish Ladies rankings. Sagstrom was part of the winning team in 2011 in the Ladies Team Amateur Championship and 11th in the French International Junior Amateur. She has also won the Swedish Junior Championship and has been a member of the Swedish National team.

The Schedule The Lady Tigers schedule set by head coach Karen Bahnsen is full of familiar stops including three of the four fall tournaments. The opener in September won’t be totally unfamiliar as LSU has had success in recent years at the College of Charleston Cougar Classic. Then it’s on to defend their title in the Mason Rudolph Fall Preview, which takes on greater importance this year as the Preview event of the 2012 NCAA Championship. The fall portion of the schedule ends with the Tar Heel Invitational (where LSU finished second a year ago) and the second year of the Pac-10/SEC Challenge, this time on the home course of the SEC in Knoxville. The spring portion features a bit of a different look as LSU opens the season in Puerto Rico before its normal opening spring tournament, the Central District Invitational in Parish, Fla. This year’s LSU Tiger Golf Classic is set for March 9-11 at the University Club and the regular season concludes at Tempe, Ariz., and the PING/ASU Invitational. The schedule sets itself up perfectly for a team that has the experience to be rewarded again with post-season success.

This is a group of players and a coaching staff who know that to be successful,

the hard work will have to continue. That’s something members of this year’s

team don’t seem to mind.

The Southeastern Conference has continuted to show its leadership in the intergration of athletic competition and higher education. Since its formation in 1933, the SEC has achieved both stature and stability by designating governing/voting power to the presidents of the member institutions. They have determined the policies of the conference and through the years this

involvement has been the principal source of strength in the evolution of the SEC. Intercollegiate athletics encountered many challenges in the 1990s and the SEC provided guidance. In 1993, the member institutions adopted The Principles of Gender Equity. Committed to increasing the quantity and quality of women’s athletic opportunities, each school provides at least two more women’s intercollegiate programs than the number of men’s. SEC schools began athletic competition over 100 years ago as members of the Southern

Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The 13 members west and south of the Appalachian Mountains reorganized as the Southeastern Conference at the annual Southern Conference meeting in 1932. Charter members of the new conference were Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, LSU , Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Sewanee, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt. In the 1979-80 academic year, SEC championships for women were recognized in basketball, tennis and volleyball. The following year golf, gymnastics, swimming and track and field were added. The administration of women’s athletics officially came under the auspices of the conference office in 1984. The SEC currently regulates nine men’s sports and 11 women’s sports. The women’s sports are volleyball, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track (cross country, indoor, outdoor) and volleyball.

It was a confident group of LSU Lady Tigers who arrived in Bryan, Texas for the NCAA D1 Golf Championships. And why not? This team had already finished second with a then-school record 54-hole total in the Fall Preview on the same Traditions Club Course. The fivesome of seniors Megan McChrystal and Amalie Valle, juniors Tessa Teachman and Jacqueline Hedwall, and freshman Austin Ernst had just posted a third place finish in the SEC Championships and a school-best second place finish in the NCAA regional in South Bend. In the second round, the indication of how special a week this might be came in to focus as Ernst birdied the final three holes to shoot six-under 66

and take a three-shot lead midway through the tournament. That scored helped the Lady Tigers stand a solid third halfway home in the event. The freshman from Seneca, S.C., who had assistant coach Alexis Rather walking with her the entire day, showed maturity beyond her first year telling the media, “The ball doesn’t know how old you are.” The third round had its bizarre moments as a near two-hour lightening delay, that would force an hour of play the next day to finish, seemed to take the starch out of LSU’s third-round play and Ernst as LSU dropped out of the top three and Ernst struggled on a couple of holes. But this was a team that had one of the best, if not the best, final round stroke averages in the country and it was a confident group that

took to the course later that afternoon. They knew they could finish with a flourish and flourish they did. The Lady Tiger team shot its best round of the event, a two-over 290 and LSU finished a solid third, just eight shots away from winner UCLA. It was the best ever finish for LSU in the history of the event. Ernst was at the top of her game and posted another six-under 66 that included a spectacular hole-in-one on the second hole and then a 60-foot birdie putt on the third hole that gave her back the individual lead for good. Ernst had rounds of 72-66-77-66 for a school record 72-hole score of seven-under 281 as she became the first freshman to win the women’s national championship since 1998. Hedwall also had a good tournament, finishing in a tie for 26th. It marked the second straight year an LSU golfer made national news in the championships as the year before in Wilmington, N.C., then junior Megan McChrystal shot a school single round, course and event record for an NCAA D1 Women’s Championship. The Stuart, Fla., native had nine birdies and just one bogey on her card to shoot an eight-under par round of 64 to finish in a tie for fifth place in the 2010 championships.

2012 NCAA Championship/LSU Championship History The regional rounds for the 2012 Championships will again be conducted over three different golf courses -East: Penn State Golf Course, State College, Pa.; Central: The Ohio State University Scarlet Course, Columbus, Ohio; West: Colorado at the Colorado National Country Club in Erie, Col. The regionals are from May 3-5. A total of 24 teams and six individuals are seeded into each regional. The eight lowest scoring teams, as well as the two lowest individuals not on those eight qualifying teams will advance to the NCAA Division I Women’s Championships at The Vanderbilt Ledgends Club in Franklin, Tenn., May 15-18.

LSU made its first of 11 NCAA championship appearances in the first NCAA event in 1982 in Palo Alto, Calif., when LSU finished 16th. The Lady Tigers would return in 1986 when LSU, led by Player of the Year Jenny Lidback, helped the Tigers to a ninth-place finish. Lidback finished tied for 17th. The Lady Tigers made their longest championship run starting in 1986, when the Three Amigas (Ashley Winn, Laura Moore and Michelle Louviere) took the Lady Tigers to top 10-finishes in 1996 (8th) and 1998 (5th). Louviere finished tied for 19th in 1986 and Ashley Winn tied for 15th.

NCAA Championships The Tigers posted 10th-place finishes in 1999 and 2000 and a 12th place finish in 2001 on teams led by Katy Harris and Meredith Duncan. Duncan played the last 54 holes in 2-under par after opening with a 10-over 82 to finish in a tie for seventh place in 2000 and Harris shot a 1-under 287 to finish in a tie for third in LSU’s appearance in 2001. Katy Harris, Meredith Duncan and now Megan McChrystal are the three LSU players who played in the championships all four years of their careers. Harris made it on four teams from 1998 to 2001, while Duncan qualified on three teams and once individually from 1999-2002. McChrystal’s four years (2008-11) included three team appearances, including assisting this year’s team best third place finish. Since 1993, to get to the NCAA Division I Championships, teams and individuals must go through the NCAA Regional Tournaments. LSU has hosted the regional on three occasions (1993, 2002, 2007). LSU has advanced to the regional round of NCAA post-season play since that first tournament in 1993 every year but 1994 and 2003.
