Court is a veteran of 24 collegiate tournaments and 70 rounds of golf, despite overcoming knee surgery in 2012-13. “Lauren improved six strokes in her season average over the past year, which shows her determination and skill,” Mant said. “She could really have a stand-out senior season with her talent and experience.” Junior Julie Lied could emerge as a top player as well, bringing 52 rounds of collegiate golf experience into her third season. Lied carded best rounds of 71 and a pair of 72s in 2013-14 to show her potential level of play. “Julie is one of the best ball strikers I have seen and with continued improvement in her short game could become one of the more exciting players to watch on our team.” Sophomores Jooeun Bae and Solene Le Coz got their first year of adjustment to college golf out of the way and understand the rig- ors and challenges at this level. Bae, from South Korea, and Le Coz, The Panthers’ lone senior, Lauren Court, and head coach Cathy Mant. from France, gained plenty of amateur experience before compet-

In the fall, GSU also competes at the Lady Pirate Intercol- legiate at East Carolina and the Edwin Watts/Palmetto Intercol- legiate in Kiawah, S.C. in October. The spring schedule also includes four tournaments, starting Feb. 13-15 with the Florida State Match-Up in Tallahassee, Fla. GSU returns to The Sunshine State Feb. 23-24 for the Amelia Island Collegiate. A trip to Mesa, Ariz. for Notre Dame’s Clover Cup is next. “This tournament will pair us with teams we don’t usually see and be something different for the program, so we look forward to this one,” Mant noted. A season highlight is always playing host to the John Kirk Pan- ther Intercollegiate in March. “We’re excited to have this as a three-day event again and already have 15 teams entered,” coach said. “Eagle’s Landing is a fantastic course and gives us a chance to showcase a facility that is in great shape for competition.” The Sun Belt Conference Championship is again at Steelwood CC in Loxley, Ala. from April 13-15. “We always gear toward the conference tournament and want to be playing our best at that point,” Mant noted. “The knowledge of that course will be help- ful for our returners and with the NCAA bid on the line, always important.” Junior Julie Lied will be counted on in 2014-15 to play a larger role. The NCAA Regionals are May 7-9 at four sites. Georgia State has earned six previous bids to the NCAA Regional in school history, most recently in 2009. ing in 2013-14 for Georgia State. Bae had a best-round score of 75 and Le Coz shot a pair of 74 rounds as GSU freshmen. “I was pleasantly surprised with their work ethic and positive attitude to try to improve their golf game,” Mant said. “I am proud of the way they prepare themselves to play and now it is time for them to step up a little more for us.” “The incoming talent will add to the success of our team, espe- cially by the conference tournament time,” Mant noted in speak- ing of the recruit class of three freshmen. Emily Royer and Paula Zabarte come from England and Spain, respectively, to begin play in September with the team, while Magda Kruger will arrive from South Africa for the second semester in January. “I see tremendous potential in each of them and I realize it takes time to devel- op, so we’ll work daily to ensure they are in a position to succeed.” Mant, a former collegiate champion and LPGA veteran, is always prepared and has a plan. “This year, we are giving the team cards to write down their positives and their goals to focus on their individual growth,” she explained. “The mental part of the game of golf is important. I think this year’s team can grow faster and improve quicker than some teams in the past. Success breeds confidence and we’ll try to help each one find individual success.” The four-tournament fall season begins Sept. 15-16 at The Car- dinal Cup in Louisville, Ky. and five days later the team plays in the Lady Paladin Invitational at Furman in Greenville, S.C. The Cardinal Cup opener with former American Athletic Conference champ and new ACC member Louisville marks the second time in three years GSU opens with this event. “The Furman field will also be challenging as teams like Florida State, Texas Tech, Wake Forest, North Carolina, Kansas and area teams converge into a Head coach Cathy Mant has earned six NCAA regional bids and won five conference championships in her previous 14 seasons at Georgia State. great event,” Mant said. www.Georgiastatesports.com 2014-15 Georgia State WOMEN’S GOLF 5 www.Georgiastatesports.com COACHING STAFF

Former Georgia State women’s golfer Kimmy Graff was named the Panthers’ assistant coach prior to the start of the 2013-14 season. This past season, Graff helped guide Georgia State to three runner-ups finishes while two individuals earned their first career wins. The Panthers amassed 91 wins as the trio of Maria Palacios, Lauren Court and Laura Sanchez all earned all-conference recognition. Graff works on all aspects of the women’s golf program, including travel, practices and budget for the Panthers. She also writes and designs the team’s newsletter and oversees all aspects of social media for the team. Graff played for Georgia State and coach Mant in 2012- 13 after three years competing at Mercer. In her one season playing with the Panthers, Graff competed in four tournaments, earning a season-best tie for 30th at the JMU Eagle Landing Invitational, where she shot a season-low 73 in the second round. While at Mercer, Graff competed in 19 events. Her career with the Bears was highlighted by a tie for 11th at the 2011 Atlantic Sun Championship. She was named all-state for four years at Killian Hill Christian School. She was the only female to compete in her division for golf, so she competed against the boys. Graff was the 2008 Georgia PGA Junior Player of the Year and Low Stroke. Her lowest competitive round was a 143 (71-72) to finish second. Graff is an extreme fitness enthusiast, spending time training and boxing when not on the golf course.

GEORGIA STATE PANTHERS SIX NCAA REGIONAL BIDS 2013-14 YEAR IN REVIEW

The Georgia State women’s golf team did not reach its ultimate goal of returning to NCAA Regional play, but it was definitely not a lost season by any stretch. Four seniors left the program moving in the right direction as head coach Cathy Mant brings in a young batch of talent for the 2014-15 season.

A pair of Panthers earned low medalist honors during the season and Georgia State concluded the year with three runner-up finishes, leaving Mant optimistic about the future.

“It was a unique year for us,” Mant said. “Collegiate golf is a team sport and so you are always looking to win as a team, but at the same point, we had a couple of special individual performances that we are definitely proud of and hope to use those wins as learning tools for the student-athletes we have returning and those who will join the program in the fall.”

The season started with a 10th-place finish at the Lady Paladin Invitational, a good start against a tough field. It gave the team a chance to see what needed to be worked on and they quickly responded in the final three events of the fall. Sanchez led the way with a tie for eighth, while Palacios tied for Just over a week later, Georgia State finished fourth at the Old 12th. It was the rest of the team who really helped in the final Waverly Bulldog Invitational hosted by Mississippi State.

The momentum carried the team into the Palmetto Intercol- The Panthers followed with a return trip to the Lady Pirate legiate, the final event of the fall. After a good start, including a Intercollegiate, an event the program has had great success over second round 288, the entire team clicked in the final round. the years. This year would be no different as GSU finished third Led by Siviter, who shot a final round 67 to win the event, after shooting a final round 3-under, 285, which at the time tied Palacios added a 69 to tie for fourth which guided the Panthers for the lowest round in program history. to a 5-under, 283, the lowest round in program history. It was Siviter’s first collegiate win as a Panther and led Georgia State to a second-place finish.

“It was a great way to finish the fall,” Mant said. “We played really well and it left the team feeling great about themselves heading into the offseason. It was also special to see Melissa get a win.”

The early part of the spring was not kind to Georgia State or for that matter most teams in the southeast as weather prevented the squad from really getting in the practice necessary to be as ready as they would like to start the season in Florida.

The Panthers opened the spring with a 13th-place finish at the UCF Challenge, but all was not lost.

“Opening the spring in Orlando was tough,” Mant said. “It was a really good field and we knew going in that we had not been able to put the time in that we would have liked because of the weather. However, it did give us a good chance to see what we needed to work on and nearly a month to do it before the next event.”

2014-15 Georgia State WOMEN’S GOLF 26 www.Georgiastatesports.com THIRD YEAR IN SUN BELT 2013-14 YEAR IN REVIEW

The practice paid off as Georgia State returned to Florida for the JMU Eagle Landing Invitational and finished second in a field of 16 teams. Palacios led the charge with a second-place finish and Court turned in an impressive tie for eighth. Siviter also had another strong performance with a tie for 13th that included a second-round 70.

The solid play continued at the UALR Women’s Golf Classic as the Panthers tied for fifth in a 17-team field that included several Sun Belt foes. Palacios tied for seventh and Siviter and Sanchez finished among the top-16. Things were building for a strong finish to the regular season and into postseason play.

Georgia State returned home for the 21st annual John Kirk Panther Intercollegiate at Eagle’s Landing Country Club. The Panthers did not disappoint and at the end, another senior picked up her first win as a Panther.

Following an opening round 300, Georgia State responded with a second-round 288, highlighted by Palacios’ 2-under round and a 1-under performance by Court. Palacios responded again in the final round with even par 72 which was good enough to send her into a playoff for the individual title, a title that she The Panthers concluded the season with a fifth-place finish at the would claim on the first playoff hole. conference championship, which was not what the squad had hoped for entering play. Palacios led the way with a tie for ninth, As a team, Georgia State scored a runner-up finish to Campbell, but the team never was able to use the momentum from earlier in a squad that advanced all the way to the NCAA Championship, the spring to make a run at the title. but it was Palacios’ win that made the runner-up finish a little less heartbreaking. “I was proud of the fact that the team never gave up during the conference championship,” Mant said. “It was disappointing “We always want to win our home event, but I think the fact because they knew that they were better than they played, but that Maria was able to win on our home course with so many sometimes the putts just do not fall the way you want. fans in attendance was also special for everyone,” Mant said. “We wanted to win one for our seniors, but I think everyone “It was a bittersweet way for the three seniors in the line-up to end took some pleasure out of seeing Maria’s victory after she had a their career, but they meant a lot more to the program than what special season.” one tournament could ever represent.”

For her remarkable season, Palacios earned first team all-conference honors after being named Sun Belt Golfer of the Month for March. She finished the season with a 74.37 scoring average, the third-best mark in program history. Court and Sanchez were honored with All-Sun Belt Second-Team honors and Siviter was nominated for Academic All-America recognition.

So as it can be seen, even though an appearance in NCAA Re- gional play was not achieved, a lot of good came out of the 2013- 14 season for the Panthers.
