Freshman Isabella McCauley tied for second place
PITTSBURGH, PA. - The University of Minnesota women's golf team finished the final round of the Big Ten Championship today. The Gophers moved up four places into ninth shooting a team tournament-best 298 and a three-day total of 902 (+50).
Illinois finished on top earning the B1G title shooting 865 (+3) edging out Northwestern by three strokes.
Quotable:
"We really had to dig in today and find a way to post a number that would move us up the leaderboard. Bella's game this week was remarkable and this feat for a freshman is amazing," said head coach Rhyll Brinsmead. "I'm proud of the way the team pushed even though we know we didn't have our best. We now wait to see if we've earned a postseason bid"

Isabella McCauley earned her highest career finish in a tie for second after shooting a 68 (-3) to move forward six places in the rankings. The freshman carded 71-74-68=213 (E) over the three days.
Grace Curran shot her best round of the tournament today with a 2-over-par 73. She notched 29 pars and six birdies across the tournament scoring 76-81-73=230 (+17).
