Killarney's Caitriona Griffin
Killarney's Caitriona Griffin can claim to enjoy a spell in Purgatory after she secured her third win for Northwestern Ohio with a school record performance at the Purgatory Intercollegiate in Indiana.
The Munster interprovincial, who earned medalist honours at the rain-shortened WHAC Jamboree and was co-medalist Georgetown Invitational earlier this season, shot a bogey-free, four-under 68 to win the weather-shortened event by one stroke.
"I'm so happy for Caitriona," said the UNOH Racer's head coach Dawn West. "She has put in the work the past three years and has been swinging so well the past two months.
"Her being a senior and knowing it's her last go round makes this even sweeter for her.
"To card 14 pars and four birdies with no bogeys on Purgatory is a phenomenal round. She is very deserving and I'm extremely proud that she was able to close the round out."
She finished one stroke ahead of Taylor University's Nicole Jung on Friday before the second and final round scheduled for Saturday was cancelled due to persistent, heavy rain.
Her 68 clipped a shot off the previous school record, set by Malaysia's Devaki Ganesh last October.
