Women’s golf completes opening day at NCAA Regional
Aces take part in first NCAA round
History was made shortly before noon today as the University of Evansville women’s golf team commenced its first round at an NCAA Regional at the Scarlet Course at The Ohio State University.
Caitlin O’Donnell took the Purple Aces first attempt to start the day at 11:50 a.m. ET with the round wrapping up at 6 p.m. Leading the Aces in their first round of action was 2021 MVC Individual Champion Sophia Rohleder. She completed the round with a 5-over 77. Closely following her was Mallory Russell. The freshman finished Monday’s action with a 7-over 79.
Third on the team was Allison Enchelmayer, who recorded an 83 while Alyssa McMinn and Caitlin O’Donnell each carded scores of 84. As a team, Evansville is in 18th place, but right on the heels of Youngstown State. UE posted a 323 while the Penguins finished Monday’s round with a 322.
Monday’s round was the first live action that the team was able to enjoy on the course. Teams would normally play a practice round on the day prior of the tournament, but inclement weather on Sunday forced its cancelation for all participants. Teams were afforded the opportunity to walk the course on Sunday, but during Evansville’s allotted time, lightning forced that to be halted shortly after walking nine holes.
Tee times for the opening round were delayed by roughly two hours in order to give the grounds crew the time needed to prepare the course for competition. Their hard work paid off and resulted in all teams finishing the first 18 holes.
Oklahoma holds a slight lead in a crowded top four on the leaderboard. The Sooners finished with a 286 and are one stroke in front of Duke. Michigan is in third with a 288 while Georgia completes the top four with a 289. Haley Borja of the Wolverines paces the individuals. A 3-under 69 has her on in front of a second-place tie.
The second 18 holes will be played on Tuesday morning.

HOUSE DEMOCRATS PRIORITIZE HOOSIER SAFETY OVER REPUBLICAN INFIGHTING
by ANNA BOWMAN
STATE DEMOCRATIC PARTY COMMUNICATION DIRECTORÂ
Indiana House Democrats today voted against the override of Governor Holcomb’s veto on Senate Enrolled Act 5, which seeks to undermine local health officials and could slow down important safety decisions during a public health emergency.
“House Democrats have listened as local health officials stated their cases against this bill; we’ve listened as our very own Rep. Rita Fleming, a retired doctor, spoke during session about why this bill was a bad idea, and we’ve listened as Governor Holcomb explained his reasoning for vetoing this dangerous legislation,†House Democratic Leader Phil GiaQuinta (D-Fort Wayne) said. “It’s simply irresponsible to continue to work against the opinions of those who know best how to navigate public health emergencies.
“The scariest part of this bill is the way it would slow down statewide orders and, in effect, slow down Indiana’s recovery from this deadly pandemic. We all want to get through this as quickly as possible, but freezing restrictions against the expert guidance of the Indiana State Department of Health and the governor isn’t the answer.â€
The process of overturning the governor’s vetoes has been a popular move by Republicans this year; Senate Bill 5 being the third override this session. Senate Bill 148, for which veto the General Assembly overrode earlier this session, was the first veto overridden since Holcomb assumed office in 2017.
“It should be emphasized that these overrides are not common practice, and it’s a shame that so much time has been wasted on bills that will probably do Indiana more harm than good at the end of the day,” GiaQuinta added. “Our job as legislators is to listen to our constituents and adhere to the guidance of experts when we draft and pass legislation. We feel our colleagues have turned their backs on that and have forced through legislation that will risk the safety of Hoosiers across Indiana.â€
Holcomb’s veto was overturned in the House with a vote of 59-30. The act will go into effect immediately.
