Pima Community College golfer Maria Harrouch has won six consecutive tournaments, with her latest triumph coming at the Southwest District Championships; she has qualified to compete in the NJCAA Division I National Championships in May.
The sophomore from Sweden won the individual title at the Southwest District Championships on Wednesday at Hillcrest Golf Club in Sun City West — her sixth consecutive tournament victory.
“It was an amazing and super fun today,” Harrouch said in a news release. “I had been putting OK the first two rounds, but today I was struggling a little bit. I didn’t know where I was against the other players scoring-wise. When Donny said, ‘Just enjoy this last hole and let’s try and make a birdie,’ all I could think about was just making it for the team. It was really fun.”
Harrouch received an automatic bid to the NJCAA Division I National Championships, which will be held May 9-12 at Buffalo Dunes Golf Course in Garden City, Kansas. She took eighth place in last year’s tournament and was named an NJCAA All-American.
