Junior Morgan Kier (Brownsburg, Ind. / Brownsburg) led the Valparaiso University women’s golf team on Friday during the first two rounds of the Redbird Invitational, hosted by Illinois State at the par-72, 6010-yard Weibring Golf Club in Normal, Ill. Kier went sub-80 in both rounds, helping Valpo finish Round 2 with its best 18-hole team score this season.
How It Happened
Thoughts from Head Coach Jill McCoy
"Morgan Kier has come a long way since her freshman year. Her back-to-back 79s today prove she is a steady and reliable player leading us into the conference tournament. She is striking the ball really well and her confidence with her putter is fantastic. Payton Hodson also posted two solid rounds today. These are the solid scores we are going to need for conference next week. Coming into the end of her season on a high note, Shelby Schier’s 79 was a lot of fun to watch today. Seeing Shelby smiling with her head held high is a great way to see her finishing her time at Valpo."
