BIRMINGHAM — The No. 1-ranked University of Alabama women's golf team fired a 7-under par 281 on Sunday to capture the 2016 SEC Women's Golf Championship at Greystone Golf and Country Club. The title is the third all-time SEC women's golf championship for the Crimson Tide. Alabama won the league's championship in 2010 and 2013.

The Crimson Tide finished 5-under for the tournament (286-292-281—859) to take the crown. Florida finished second at even par (292-286-286—864), and Arkansas finished third at 18-over (300-294-288—882).

"This is a group of girls, (that), at the beginning of the year, we weren't sure what we had," coach Mic Potter said.
