CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) — Arkansas sophomore Maria Jose Marin kept her poise down the stretch and closed with a birdie for a 3-under 69 for a two-shot victory Monday in the NCAA Women's Golf Championship at La Costa.
Jose Marin became the third woman from Arkansas to win the NCAA title, joining Stacy Lewis (2007) and Maria Fassi (2019).
“I have mixed emotions and the strongest is I'm super happy right now,” Jose Marin said. “I trust my game on every single shot. I knew I was capable of a great round, and it was.”
Arkansas also is among eight teams advancing to the match play for the NCAA team title over the next two days.
