FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – One of the finest seasons in Texas women's golf history came to a close on Tuesday, as the No. 2 Longhorns dropped a 3-2 decision to No. 13 Auburn in the NCAA Championship Match Play Quarterfinals at Blessings Golf Club.
The Longhorns tied for fifth at the 2019 NCAA Championship, which marks the program's best finish since placing third in 2003. It was the eighth top-five NCAA finish for the Longhorns all-time.
Texas advanced to match play for the first time since it was implemented in the 2015 season. It was an historic campaign in which Texas earned five wins for just the third time in program history.
