KONA, Hawai'i – The Oregon State women's golf team wrapped up its fall season on Tuesday by finishing in 11th place at the Pac-12 Preview on Hawaii's Big Island.
The Beavers concluded the two-day, 54-hole tournament with a 49-over 300-318-307--925 at the par-73, 6,392-yard Nanea Golf Club. It was the fifth and final event of the fall season for Oregon State, which began with a team title at the Oregon State Invitational at Trysting Tree Golf Club in Corvallis in mid-September.
Senior Anica Yoo fired her best score of the Pac-12 Preview, a 1-over 74 in the final round, to move 11 spots up the leaderboard into a tie for 34th place with a 12-over 78-79-74--231. She was steady throughout the day, after struggling a bit in the first two rounds, with a birdie on the par-3, 146-yard eighth hole, 15 pars and two bogeys.
