EAGLE, Idaho – The University of Providence golf team completed the first round of the Frontier Conference Championship Monday in Eagle, Idaho.

The women's team is currently in 5^th place. The men's team didn't have enough players to field a team and are only competing individually.

Individually, Jonny Cielak is currently in 11^th place with a score of 81. He is eight strokes behind the leaders; Sean Ramsbacher of Montana Tech and Mitch Thiessen of Rocky Mountain. Colton Stodghill is ranked 12^th place with an 86, while Ben Kaul is tied for 13^th at 87.

"I think the boys expected to do better than they did," head coach Spencer Williams said. "They started out tough with the wind and couldn't turn it around. I know they're disappointed but I'm looking forward to them bouncing back."

On the women's side, Kieler Jones is the highest ranked Argo, coming in at 14^th place with a 102. Kate Murack is currently 16^th at 104.

"The girls as a group didn't struggle too bad off the tee," Williams said. "I'm expecting them to sure up their short game.  The course is pretty intimidating. I look for there scores to go down with them having played this golf course two times in a row now. They ended the day on a positive note. They know they're going to do better. They know what they need to improve on personally so I expect them to keep going."

Both teams will look to climb up the leaderboard in the second round of the tournament. The second round will begin on Tuesday at 8 a.m, with the final round occurring on Wednesday.
