Senior Lyla Louderbaugh led the way for Kansas, posting a 74-66-66 (-10) that left her tied for 10th.Â
"We really finished strong today and had a great 10-under par round. Lyla led the way again with the 66 and then Hannah Hall with the 69, Kinslea Jones with the 71 and Anna Wallin 72 again," Kansas head coach Lindsay Kuhle said. "Overall team effort, we had all five players in it today, and I feel like we always play our best when we have that."Â
Kuhle added, "Really proud of how we competed to the very end and made a charge, making a few birdies at the end."
Southern California (-47) finished atop the leaderboard, 14 strokes ahead of second-place Miami (-33). Pepperdine (-32), Texas A&M (-32) and LSU (-31) rounded out the top five.Â
