Cross country
Rollins cross country was in Deland Florida on Friday the thirteenth for the 2006 Sodexho Stetson Hatter Invitational. The Tars posted good enough times for an eighth place finish in men's and a thirteenth place finish in women's. Warner Southern took first place in the men's division and Florida Atlantic came out on top in the women's division. Team leader Rob Hoffman completed the 8k race with a time of 30:15, taking twenty-seventh place for the men. The women felt the absence of another team leader, Kristina Aronson, who could not compete because of an injury. Junior Kristin Hechler picked up the slack, leading the women Tars with a forty-sixth place finish. Rollins wrap up this season on October twenty-first with the 2006 Sunshine State Conference Championship at Nova Southeastern.
Women's Golf
The Tars took third at the Nova Southeastern Fall Invitational on October 16-17 behind Division leaders Lynn University and Florida Southern thanks in part to some excellent playing by sophomore Laura Fourdraine. Foudraine tied for second place with a total of 150 strokes after back to back seventy five stroke rounds. She finished with only one more stroke than first place finisher Katy McNicoll of Lynn University. Marie-Pierre Bernier also shot well for the Tars, with a stroke total of 157. Rollins ends their fall season at the Ross Resorts Invitational-Mid Pines in Southern Pines, North Carolina. The Tars are set to host the event along with Rollins alum and golf legend Peggy Kirk Bell.
Men's Golf
Rollins tied with Johnson and Wales for sixth place at The Tillinghast in Scarsdale, New York against tough competition from the North. South Carolina-Aiken won the tournament followed by host St. John's in second and Notre Dame in third. Senior Jeff Golden led the Tars with a 150 stroke total, but junior David DeNunzio was only one stroke behind to help tie Johnson and Wales. The Tars hope to place even higher when they host the 2006 Rollins College Invitational on October 30-31 at the Forest Lake Gulf Club in Ocoee, Florida.
