Thrice as Nice for LIU Blackbird Golfers
LIU-Brooklyn Captures Third Straight NEC Title
A dynasty grows in Brooklyn.
Spearheaded by sophomore Marisol Doglioli’s record-setting performance, the LIU-Brooklyn women’s golf team made it three straight Northeast Conference championships Sunday afternoon in Daytona Beach, Fla.
Doglioli, who finished with a three-day tournament record of six-under par 210, grabbed the individual title and helped the Blackbirds qualify for their third consecutive trip to the NCAA Regionals, based on the conference’s automatic bid to the national championships.
LIU, seeded 23rd, will now square off against the likes of UCLA, Arkansas, Arizona, LSU, Harvard and Siena in the Central Regional at Karsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla., beginning May 8.
