Stormo becomes the second Kent State player to win a major summer amateur title.
You might say Stormo, from Norway, marched to this title with authority. After entering the day with a four-shot lead, Stormo played her first 10 holes in 5 under par. She mixed in two bogeys – but also three more birdies – on the back nine to pull away.
With the victory, Stormo becomes the second Kent State player to earn a major summer amateur victory. Marissa Kirkwood, who tied for 10th this week, won the Donna Andrews Invitational last month.
Behind Stormo, Lauren Hartlage was solo second at 7 under. The Louisville player had a closing 67 but could still never really apply pressure to Stormo.
Florida State’s Amanda Doherty was third at 5 under, followed by Amari Avery, the 15-year-old who recently won the California Women’s Amateur Championship.
