TUCSON, Ariz. — Mar Garcia and Ruby Chou both tuned in excellent weeks to finish tied for ninth in a loaded field at the MountainView Collegiate.

Four of the 14 competing teams are in the top-34 nationally, and the Bearcats finished 10th, two spots ahead of No. 47 Miami (Fla.). 

It was the third top-10 finish for both Garcia and Chou, as well as the third time this year that UC had multiple top-10 finishes. Garcia's even-72 in Tuesday's finale was her best of the event, while Chou hit it hard early with a 2-under 70 that was matched Yu-Wei Chiang for the best of the week.

Chiang rallied from an 84 in her second round for a 10-stroke improvement to cap it. Imni also had a nine-stroke bump over that span.

Rim Imni and Lauren Pleiman rounded out the scorecard.

Cincinnati now has a long layover till its next event: the Chattanooga Classic from March 28-30.
