KERRVILLE --- California Baptist University women's golf opened the first round of the Western Athletic Conference Championships on Monday, as Sofia Chabon and Jocelyn Chee posted top-10 scores.
Chabon led the Lancers during the opening round, finishing with a 1-over-par 73 to place fifth, while Chee recorded a 2-over-par 74 to place T-6th. Chabon ended her round with some momentum, playing the last four holes at 1-under-par.

If they were, they finished with a 17-over-par 305 team score, which is good enough for fourth place.
Hailey Loh ended her day with a top-15 finish at T-13th, as she signed a 5-over-par 77. Filipa Capelo and Haruka Shintani both finished with a 9-over-par 81.
