MACON, Ga. – The University of Cincinnati women's golf team notched a third-place finish at the Brickyard Collegiate on Tuesday.  
 
The Bearcats posted their second-lowest tournament total of the season with a team score of 912. It marks Cincinnati's fourth top-five team finish in the last five tournaments. 
 
"Today was a good day! The Bearcats battled hard, and I couldn't be more proud of them," said head coach Janet Carl. "This is a difficult golf course and they built great strategies through three rounds, and it paid off! This tournament was a total team effort. They posted the second lowest team score which helps them build confidence as we are head into conference. Katie and Brooke had two top-10 finishes. We need to get back to Cincinnati to get some rest as we head off to the conference championship this week."
 
The Bearcats had a pair of top-10 performers in graduate student Katie Hallinan and freshman Brooke Patterson. Hallinan carded a two-over 74 in the final round to finish sixth with a score of 226. Patterson notched her first top 10 finish of the season, placing 10th with a score of 227.  
 
Junior Sadie Pan saw a 12-spot improvement in the final round to finish 18th. She carded a one-under 71 in the third round. Junior Paola Rosario recorded a 74 in the final round to finish 27th while sophomore Julia Rabadam placed 32nd. 
 
Junior Paighton Masterson, who competed as an individual, finished in 33rd.
