SPARTANBURG, S.C. – The Wofford women's golf team recorded a fifth place finish, the team's highest of the fall, at the Terrier Intercollegiate. The two-day, 36 hole tournament was held Oct. 23-24. Wofford hosted 11 teams at the Country Club of Spartanburg.
 
Despite nasty weather on Monday, the teams completed 18 holes of play. Tuesday's final 18 was played under near perfect conditions, with weather in the high 60's and the sun shining.
 
Wofford shot 315 in the first round and improved 12 shots to shoot 303 in Tuesday's second round. Wofford's team score of 618 was 42 over par on the par 72 course.
 
"I was proud of our team's play today with one of our lowest team scores of the season," said head coach Angie Ridgeway.
 
High Point won the tournament by eight shots over Georgia Southern. High Point finished with a team score of 16 over par. High Point's Cayla Smith won medalist honors, finishing two under par and winning by two shots.
