Rose City Collegiate - Final Results 
AURORA, Ore. - The Oregon State women's golf team finished in second place at the 13-team Rose City Collegiate and junior Lauren Sewell had a career-best placing in a three-round tournament with a tie for sixth place on Tuesday.
The Beavers were in second place after 36 holes of play on Monday, trailing Seattle U. by 13 strokes, and rallied to finish a stroke ahead of the Redhawks, but Cal State Fullerton posted a solid final round in cool and breezy conditions to win the team title at the par-72, 6,080-yard Langdon Farms Golf Club.
Oregon State finished the two-day, 54-hole event with a 52-over 311-296-309--916, while Cal State Fullerton was four strokes better with a 48-over 304-305-303--912. The Beavers now have two top-five finishes to start the 2012-13 season after finishing fourth at the Oregon State Invitational in Corvallis in mid-September.
"We had our chances today," Oregon State head coach Risë Alexander said. "Unfortunately, we didn't take advantage of them. We need to work on our emotional management and our course management to avoid compounding our errors."
The second-place finish is the best in a three-round tournament by Oregon State since finishing second at the Rose City Collegiate two years ago when North Texas won the title by three strokes. The Beavers won the National Individual Championship in a one-round dual tournament against Portland State in October of 2010.
Sewell shot a 6-over 78 on Tuesday after throwing scores of 75 and 72 on her Monday scorecard to finish the tournament with a 9-over 225 and tied for sixth place overall. It's her first career top-10 finish in a three-round tournament, and third overall, after finishing in a tie for seventh at last season's two-round Peg Barnard Invitational and fourth at the Washington National Individual Championship.
Junior Seshia Telles also shot a 6-over 78 on Tuesday and just missed a top-10 finish with a tie for 12th with a 13-over 81-70-78--229. Sophomore Anica Yoo shot the Beavers' best round on Tuesday to finish a stroke back of Telles with a 14-over 78-77-75--230, while freshman Chelsea Saelee was tied for 22nd with a 17-over 77-77-79--233 and senior Rachael Fischer wrapped up play with a 20-over 81-77-78--236 for a tie for 29th.
Oregon State has less than a week off before returning to action at the 31st edition of the Edean Ihlanfeldt Invitational at Sahalee Country Club in Sammamish, Wash., from Monday through Wednesday.
