BOULDER, Colorado - The University of Oklahoma women's golf team shot two rounds of 301 after an opening-round 318 at the Big 12 Championships to finish the tournament in fifth place. The Sooners were tied for 10th following the first round of play, but climbed five spots in the last two rounds. The competition at the Big 12 Championships included all of the Big 12 teams, and was led by Oklahoma State all three rounds, who finished with a team total of 906. The Sooners traveled three freshmen, a senior and a sophomore to its sixth tournament of the spring season.
