Golf in Fourth After One Day at Battle for the Belt

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. – Reddie women's golf took to Hot Springs Country Club for the opening day of the 2026 Battle for the Belt. Through 36 holes, HSU sits in fourth place in the tournament with a score of 36-over par.

UT-Tyler leads the tournament at one-over par. UT-Dallas (+26) and McLennan Community College (+29) both sit in the top three, ahead of the Reddies. Arkansas-Monticello (+37) rounds out the top five with one round remaining.

Audrey McCallum paces the way for the Reddies through two rounds with scores of 73 and 77. The freshman's first round contained four birdies and five bogeys, while her second round started with one of her three birdies to go along with six bogeys and a double bogey. McCallum sits in a tie for 11th on the individual leaderboard.

Teagen Muldoon is alone in 19th place through day one of the tournament, turning in cards of 76 and 77. The freshman, like McCallum, had her better round in the opening 18, using one birdie and five bogeys to card her four-over round. In Sunday's second round, Muldoon had a single birdie with four bogeys and a double.

Hailey Coleman bounced back from an opening round 79 with a 76 in the second round to finish the day tied for 21st. Big numbers cost the fifth year early, with two double bogeys and four bogeys on the card before firing three birdies to cancel out two doubles in the second round.

Lora Jones, like Coleman, improved her score from round one to round two, shooting a 76 after a first round 80. The sophomore's birdieless first round was marred by six bogeys and a double; her second round carried another six bogeys, but this time there were two birdies to mitigate the damage. Jones finalized day one in a tie for 28th place on the individual leaderboard.
