Vaughn wins NCAA individual title, Northwestern low team

Northwestern will have the top seed for the match-play portion of the NCAA Women's Golf Championship, while Arizona State senior Monica Vaughn won the individual title after a late collapse from Wake Forest's Jennifer Kupcho.

The Wake Forest team didn't qualify for this week's event at Rich Harvest Farms outside Chicago, and Kupcho was seeking to become the first individual player to take home top honors without her team present since Stacy Lewis in 2007. She held a four-shot lead with five holes to go, and was still leading by two shots after finding the 17th fairway.
