NJCAA player medals at SunTrust Gator Women's Invite

GAINSVILLE, FL (March 11, 2018) - At the SunTrust Gator Women's Invite Jiwon Jeon of Daytona State College stole the show. A sophomore for the NJCAA school, Jeon finished 7-under and as the five-stroke winner at Mark Bostick Golf Course. Jeon, from South Korea, signed for rounds of 68-66-69 and on Sunday she eased her way into the winners circle with a three birdie, two bogey final round. The birdies for Jeon came on Nos. 6, 8 and 17. Jeon helped Daytona State College to an eighth place finish, a finish that could be good enough to earn them an at-large bid into the Women's NCAA Division I Tournament.
