PARKVILLE, Mo. – Plern Promboobpa missed her own school record by one stroke and established a Park University for low round in a tournament at The Deuce on Tuesday afternoon, shooting 73 to climb eight spots into third place to finish the Park University Fall Invitational, helping the Pirates to a fifth-place finish.

Promboobpa’s two-day 158 was Park’s best two-day score in the event, followed by 175 from Kelsey Faiferlick, who shot 88 on Tuesday after finishing Monday’s 18 holes in 87. Park improved its team score by nine shots, overtaking Northwest Missouri State University, but the Pirates stayed in fifth after Bellevue University, led by individual champion Ana Laura Gomez, improved by 18 shots to shoot 340 on day two, taking fourth.

Callie Porter shot 90 for Park, Lindsey Vest shot 94, and Sarah Hall finished day two in 96.

Gomez opened the tournament for Bellevue Monday with 75 and entered the day one shot off Monday’s pace, set by Fort Hays State University’s Samantha Neilsen, who shot 79 on day two to finish second. Gomez shot 73 to win the tournament by six strokes.

Fort Hays State did turn in the top team score of the two-day event, shooting a 36-hole team score of 654, coming from behind to beat Grand View University by 12 shots.

The event, which was the first fall tournament ever hosted by Park, also featured a men’s tournament, captured by Grand View University. The Vikings stormed back from five behind after Monday’s 18 holes, and Yousaf Kahn was the highlight of the day, for Grand View, going five-under part to shoot 65 after opening the tournament in 77, winning by one shot over Tom O’Keeffe from Fort Hays State, who shot 68 on Monday and 75 on Tuesday, and his teammate Aaron Ahrendsen, who shot 70 on Monday and 73 on Tuesday for Grand View, helping the Vikings shoot 282 on Tuesday, just two over par at the par 70 Deuce.

The Park University Fall Invitational was the final fall event of the 2011-12 season for Park University, which will resume its golf season in the spring. A complete spring schedule will be released later this fall at www.parkathletics.com.
