Schroeder Caps Another Great Season For Beavers

STILLWATER, Okla. – Nicole Schroeder played well again at the NCAA Division I Women's Golf National Championships on Sunday to cap another successful season for the Oregon State women's golf team.

Schroeder, a sophomore from Rocklin, Calif., concluded her play at the NCAA Championships with a 12-over 77-73-78--228 at the par-72, 6,328-yard Karsten Creek Golf Club. She had one birdie and 14 pars in the final round.

Second-year head coach Dawn Shockley led the Beavers to the NCAA Regionals in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 2000-2001. They finished in seventh place in Lubbock Texas last year and eighth in Madison, Wis., this year.

For the first time in program history an individual qualified for the NCAA Championships in consecutive seasons, as Susie Cavanagh made it last year and Schroeder earned a spot this year by winning the individual title in Madison.

They joined All-American Kathleen Takaishi (1999) and Anica Yoo (2015) to make it to the final stop in women's college golf.

Oregon State notched five consecutive top-five finishes during the spring to earn another trip to postseason play:

               5th place -- Westbrook Spring Invitational
               3rd place -- Meadow Club Women's Collegiate
               4th place -- Entrada Classic
               5th place -- Anuenue Spring Break Classic
               5th place -- Lady Buckeye Spring Invitational

Freshman Ellie Slama posted the best single-season scoring average in school history (72.79), while junior Olivia Benzin and Schroeder both set the program single-round record with a 6-under 66.
