SAN ANTONIO, Tex. -- The women's golf team made a statement to end its fall season by scoring a season-best 18-hole score in the final round of the Jim West Tournament.

After coming in 10th out of 12 teams yesterday, the Badgers pulled themselves up to fifth place with a 42-over 316-300-290 in the 54-hole tournament. Due to the threat of severe weather the tournament was cut short by a dayresulting in 36 holes of golf being played on Monday, November 3 instead of the 18 that was originally scheduled.

The third-round score of 290 tied Houston for the best round of the day and is the eighth best 18-hole score in school history.
Both Gabby Curtis and Kimberly Dinh led the Badgers in this tournament tying for 13th with a 9-over 225. Dinh was only one of four in the field to and the only one in round 3 to break 70 with a final round of 69, which ties her career-best 18-hole score.
