The two-day, 36-hole event was held at the Hickory Ridge Golf Course, a par-72, 6,091-yard layout.

Staubo tied a career-low with a two-under-par round of 70 on Sunday and came back with a mark of 74 in the second round. The two-day total of 144 gave Staubo her first collegiate medalist title.

"Congrats to Thilda Staubo on capturing her first collegiate title and winning the event by eight shots," head coach Greg Towne said.
