The Northwestern Wildcats appeared to be in a slump. After having played in just one tournament since early March, and carding a 12th-place one stroke over par in that event, things were looking a little bleak. Then came the Lewis Chitengwa Memorial in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The ‘Cats shone, shooting under par all three rounds, and saved their best for last. On the final day, the team shot seven under par to seal a mark of 14-under for the tournament. The Wildcats, who currently sit at 31st in the country, finished in a tie for fourth with the sixth-ranked Auburn Tigers.
