Mid-American Conference

Female Scholar Athlete of the Week: April 15th – April 21st, 2019
 
Kent State's Karoline Stormo, Golf (Junior, 3.557, Exercise Science)
Karoline Stormo’s record-setting second round allowed her to capture medalist honors while lead #10 Kent State to its 21st Mid-American Conference Women’s Golf championship in a row. Stormo shot a 65 (-7) during the second round to beat the previous 18-hole championship record by 2 strokes. Her 211 (-5) is tied for the second-lowest 54-hole score in championship history. The victory did not come without adversity, as rainy conditions during Friday’s opening round assisted Toledo in holding a 2-stroke lead after the first 18 holes. Heavy rain postponed Saturday’s second round and forced the teams to play 36 holes on Sunday. Stormo concluded the tournament with a 70 over the final 18 holes on Sunday to lead the Golden Flashes to an 18- stroke victory. The junior, who was also named MAC Golfer of the Year following Sunday’s competition, has tied Kent State’s single-season record with four victories this year.
