PROVO, Utah -- The SUU women's golf team had an unbelievable final round of the Timpanogos Collegiate Invitational, shooting a team combined nine under par to spring themselves into a solo ninth position at +6 for the tournament. 

Natcharee (Irene) Thanchitnithithanya led the way shooting an SUU career-low six-under par in round three, four birdies, an eagle, and zero bogeys on the card. She was assisted in the scoring by Anais Guibal who shot a three under par 69 in the final round, with four birdies and one bogey. Tijana Kovacic and Tanyatorn (Excel) Thalangkarn rounded out the lineup both shooting even par 72. 

Irene also finished best on the team, shooting four under par for the tournament, good enough for T12. Guibal wasn't far behind with a T17 finish at two under par. Excel finished T41 at +5, Ellie Olsen was T71 at +11 and Kovacic was T82 at +13 for the tournament. Reece Bandemer (+24) and Cornelia Karlsson (+26) both competed as individuals. 

Quotes from head coach Tara Oglesby
"I am so proud of the way we closed the tournament today. We spend a lot of time in practice on scoring so it was nice to see Irene and Anais go low today. A tournament like this and a final round like we had provides us with a lot of encouragement as we grow as a team and find out what we are made of individually and collectively."
