Women’s Golf Ties For Seventh; Freman Earns Top 5 Finish At Juli Inkster Spartan Invitational

SAN JOSE, Calif. – Competing against some of the top programs in the country the Santa Clara women's golf team carded the second-best 54-hole team score in program history with a 901 and ended the Juli Inkster Spartan Invitational at the Almaden Golf and Country Club in a tie for seventh place. Freshman Annie Freman led the Broncos shooting an even-par 216 to tie for fifth place, her fourth top-5 finish of 2013-14.

Santa Clara scored a 302 in Tuesday's final round and tied with Coastal Carolina and Cal State Fullerton. Oregon, the top ranked team competing in the event at No. 20 according to the most recent Golfstat rankings, took the team title with an 876, two shots better than No. 35 UC Davis. Tournament host and 77th ranked San José State placed third with an 883.
