Fellow senior, Jordan Sunset finished the fourth-best on the team overall. Sunset's 83 (+11) pushed her 54-hole total to a 238 (79, 76, 83 = +22).
As a team, the Bears holed 174 pars throughout the three rounds, the second most in the 14-team field behind only Cal Poly (189).

The Bears currently defeated four other Big Sky schools at the meet, but are ended behind Portland State (+29), Southern Utah (+42) and Eastern Washington (+48)
In Their Words:
Head Coach, Stephen Bidne
"We had a good chance to climb the leaderboard today, but unfortunately couldn't get enough shots to go our way, and enough putts to drop early on in the round. It was encouraging to see Baile [Winslow] play steady again and lead the team today as well as Morgan who fought through an illness in which she almost had to WD. This was a demanding course off the tee and will make Boulder Creek next week seem like a breeze with its wide fairways and large greens, so I'm hopeful we can get everyone on track and have a great event.The team is right on the brink to all coming together and doing something special. We just need five players to come ready to compete for three days next week."
Up Next:
Next up for the women's golf team is a trip to Nevada to compete in the Big Sky Conference Championships over April 21-23.
