Women's Golf captures first win of the season at Asbury Invitational

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- For the second straight day, the Lindsey Wilson women's golf posted to low score en route to its first win of the season at the Asbury (Ky.) Invitational at the Gary Brewer Jr. Golf Course.

The win comes after three runner-up team finishes this season.

Following a team-total 325 on Monday, the No. 24-ranked Blue Raiders shaved off 10 strokes today for a 315 and a tournament total 640 to win by 29 strokes over second-place Indiana East. Midway (Ky.) finished third with a 671 (326-345) and host Asbury ended in fourth with a 688 (350-338).

Five Blue Raiders recorded top-10 finishes led by Katie Biddlecombe's runner-up finish.

Biddlecombe carded a tournament-low 77 -- three shots better than her opening round -- to finish one shot off the win with a two-day total of 157 (80-77). She recorded a pair of birdies today to post her second top-five and third top-10 finish this season.

Malene Clausen ended just one shot off her teammate's score to post a third-place finish. She ended the tournament with a 158 (80-78) after carding two birdies today as well. The third-place finish is Clausen's team-leading fourth top-five this season.

Megan Mann, Hannah Sumner, and Zofia Wojcik -- playing as an individual -- also posted top-10s this week.

Mann and Sumner each carded 80s today -- a three and eight-shot improvement from Monday -- to finish fifth and eighth, respectively. Mann shot a 163 (83-80) over the two rounds while Sumner posted a 168 (88-80).

Wojcik was the top individual in the tournament with a 168 (87-81). She finished tied with Sumner in eighth place.

Lauren Holeman ended the two-day tournament with a 170 (82-88) to finish 14th while Marlie Shirley -- also playing as an individual -- ended in 25th with a 180 (92-88).

Indiana East's Jo Wisecup earned medalist honors with a 156 (79-77).
