Coogs up 3 on UCF and 5 on SMU as they start to get to the turn.

Harm still leads by 3 strokes, but Thothong has moved into a tie for 2nd as well.

Coogs down 1 now as everyone enters the turn and SMU is only 2 back

Yeesh…Coogs struggling early on the back 9. Now 4 back of UCF and tied with SMU. Harm only up 1 now.

Going to need another big comeback to have a chance.

Coogs hanging in there, 3 strokes back as UCF seems to be struggling on the back 9 as well.

Welp…not looking good. Coogs now 7 strokes back in 3rd and Harm is now 3 strokes back as she’s not having a good day.

Coogs need a miracle at this point.

Coogs are going to finish 3rd as they sit 7 strokes back of UCF and 3 back of SMU with only Harm left to go on 18.

Bummer

Coogs do finish 3rd and Harm will finish 3rd as well as the dreaded last day collapse hits the team again. Hopefully they have better luck in the regionals.
