KU women’s golf ninth in Arizona
TUCSON, ARIZ. ? The Kansas University women’s golf squad placed ninth after Sunday’s final round at the 15-team Mountain View Collegiate.
The Jayhawks shot a third-round total of 296 and finished with a three-round total of 892. All three rounds were under 300, a first for KU this season.
“I saw a lot of improvement in this tournament,” KU coach Erin O’Neil said. “It was a good confidence-booster for us, and hopefully we can use this as a building block for the rest of the season.”
