Despite challenging course conditions, she showcased her skills, leading Marshall with an impressive total of 10 birdies over the week. Her efforts helped the team secure a 4th place finish.
Among her favorite moments were the par-4 5th and 14th holes, which she birdied in two out of three rounds. She also excelled on the lengthy par-5 holes, finishing 1-under par for the tournament.
Another standout was Taylor Sargent, who competed as an individual. She achieved a top-25 finish, highlighted by three consecutive birdies on holes 16 to 18 during her first round.
