The Greyhounds (647) were led by a pair of top ten finishers in Lyndsay McBride (Bristol, Ind./Northridge) and Ashley Seaton (Sellersburg, Ind./Silver Creek).
McBride carded efforts of 79 and 78 to share seventh place at 13-over. Competing as an individual, Seaton went 78 and 80 to notch her first top-ten showing of the spring.
Junior Allison Tyler (Indianapolis, Ind./Ben Davis) was just one stroke back of Seaton at 159 (80-79), good for a share of 11th in the 69-golfer field. Senior Sarah Prascsak (Ft. Wayne, Ind./Bishop Dwenger) rebounded from a first-round 88 with a 76 Sunday to jump from 43rd to 26th.
