LIVE SCORING | PAIRINGS
CHATTANOOGA---The Chattanooga Mocs women's golf team returns to the tee after a 17-day layoff. The Mocs begin play at the Henssler Intercollegiate Monday morning with 36 holes before completing the event with Tuesday's final 18.
Pinetree Country Club proved to be a difficult tract a year ago with a fifth-place finish shooting 910. That was 20 off the pace of defending champion Texas Tech. The course features long par 3s and 4s.
Holly Morgan leads the squad with a 74.39 stroke average. Monica San Juan (74.38) and Cristina Perez (74.81) are close behind, while Maddy McDanel (76.19) and Maria Pineiro (76.67) round out this week's entry. Megan Woods (76.81) is teeing it up as an individual.
The Mocs are attempting to recapture their start to the season. In the first three events, the team averaged 291.89 strokes per round. That's grown to 301.67 over the past four.

5 Notes to Know
Colette Murray on…
Henssler Intercollegiate:
"I haven't thought of it (in regards to the strength of the field). We've gone back to taking it one day at a time, staying in the process and controlling the things we can control. That's our plan this week. We haven't really gone beyond today from a golf standpoint. We're trying to revert back to how we started the season."
Preparation for this week:
"We've been working on longer par 4s and par 3s…just trying to stretch ourselves. Statistically, we're pretty strong on par 3s from 130-150 yards. We're strong on par 4s that are less than 350. We've lost a lot of shots that are par 4s between 370-400 yards long. We've been working a lot on having those shots into those greens along with the up and downs we can expect on those types of holes."
