CINCINNATI, Ohio – Lady Topper Golf pulled out a second-place finish at Cincinnati's Jennifer Duke Invitational on Tuesday afternoon. The team posted a 24-over 308 for the final round to finish the tournament at 54-over 906.
"It wasn't quite the result that we wanted, but I'm still very proud of this team," said head coach Adam Gary. "Monday proved that we have it in us to lead a tournament as a team, and we just need to capitalize more on that opportunity in the future."
Freshman Sydney Hackett continued her leading ways as she tied for fourth overall out of 64 individuals. She posted a final-round 3-over 74 at the par-71, 6,075-yard Losantiville Country Club.
WKU counted a 5-over 76 from senior Sarah Arnold and a 7-over 78 from fifth-year senior Kenlie Barrett. The duo tied for 17th overall.
Tying for ninth after playing the tournament as an individual was sophomore Catie Craig. She carded a 6-over 77 on Tuesday. Juniors Rachel Rich and Addie Westbrook finished up their tournaments with 8-over 79's. Rich tied for 11th while Westbrook finished t-15th.
