For the season, she recorded six rounds under par, four rounds in In the 36-hole fi nal at Th e Amateur, she defeated Blumenherst, the reigning college player of the year, 1-up after the latter three-putted the 35th hole. “Maria’s strongest asset is that she brings a positive energy to the team,” commented Forsyth. “She’s also a great teammate.” Th rough two tournaments this season, Uribe was fi ve-under par with a pair of Top 10 results, sparked by two sub-70 rounds. At the Mason Rudolph event, she fi red a second round 66 (-6) and at the Fall Preview, she posted a fi nal round 69 (-3). Forsyth has much respect for her game. “Every aspect of her game is solid,” said the head coach. “She has a well-rounded game: physically, a good swing; she putts and chips well and she has a sound mental game. She’s the whole package.” Forsyth is also impressed with Yang, the Bruins’ other freshman. Although she didn’t play much over the summer, Yang managed to advance to the second round of the U.S. Women’s Amateur Publinks after tying for fi fth place in the stroke play competition. “Glory is a much better player now than when she was recruited,” recalls Forsyth. “She has a great putting stroke, a solid golf swing and she hits a lot of good shots.” In 2006, Yang recorded six Top 10 fi nishes on the junior circuit, highlighted by a victory at the Fidelity Investment Junior at Trump National. Th rough six rounds this season, Yang was three-under par with a pair of Top 20 results, including a seventh place fi nish at the season opener in Tennessee.
COACH’S COMMENTS Perhaps the most gratifying aspect of this year’s team is its ability to execute, according to the head coach. “I can tell these players to hit a certain shot, and they have it in their repertoire,” she said. “Few teams that I’ve coached can perform to that level. It makes for a very coachable and fun team atmosphere. “Th is team also gets along really well,” she continued. “Th ey’re very upbeat. Th ey’re fun to be with. On top of that they have a win- Glory Yang ning attitude.”
