JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Ella Ofstedahl shot a 74, and the Georgia Southern women's golf team is tied for 10th after the first round of the First Coast Classic Monday at Deerwood Country Club.
The second round was suspended with about six holes to go, and the teams will start at 7:45 a.m. tomorrow to finish that round and roll right into the third round.
The Eagles finished the first round a stroke behind Cincinnati and six back of eighth-place UAB. North Florida leads the tournament, South Alabama is second while Arkansas State and Florida International are tied for third.
Ofstedahl was tied for 22nd after the first round, and Alberte Thuesen, playing in her first tournament of the season, shot 75 and is tied for 28th.
Ofstedahl began the day on the 9th hole and birdie 10 to play her first three holes 1-under. The senior wound up making two birdies on the front nine to play the side even. Thuesen started on the 8th hole and birdied 10 on her way to an even 36 on the back nine. The sophomore also made birdie at hole 1 and was 1-under through her first 13 holes of the day.

Quotables from Coach Emily Kuhfeld
"We hit a few bumps on our first 18, and we are proud of the girls for responding with patience, grit and upbeat attitudes. Because of weather, the second round was called with a few holes remaining that we will be able to finish tomorrow morning. We are looking forward to finishing up our second round and playing the third, keeping up the energy and the confidence that Coach Kelly and I saw this this afternoon."
