Black Hills State University Athletics

PREP: A 2-time CHSAA First Team All-State and First Team All-Conference honoree with recognition in the 2022 and 2024 seasons, Beld continues what is starting to become a strong pipeline to the state of Colorado for the Black Hills State women's golf team, making it three current Yellow Jackets from The Centennial State when she arrives on campus. She began her prep career at Resurrection Christian School where she recorded a third place finish in regionals with a single round score of 89 and then went on to post a 10-stroke improvement from round one (89) to round two (79) of the CHSAA Class 3A State Tournament for an eighth place finish. As a team, the Cougars placed sixth in the state tournament in the spring of 2022. After sitting out the 2023 season due to transfer rules, Beld returned to the prep scene in the spring of 2024 with Fossil Ridge High School where she secured the regional title with a single round score of 74 (+3). Prior to the state tournament she was a part of a FRHS team that won both the Front Range League title and the regional title. She then went on and carded rounds of 78 (+6) and 73 (+1) for a 36-hole score of 151 (+7) to move into a tie for sixth place at the CHSAA Class 5A State Tournament at the Broadlands Golf Course in Broomfield, Colorado, helping the SaberCats land a runner-up finish. She has collected five top-5 finishes as an amateur in the Colorado PGA (COPGA) and also plays in the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA). Abbi is the daughter of Jason and Wendi Beld.
