Led by a pair of top-five individual finishes and some career-best efforts, the Western Kentucky women's golf team claimed second place Tuesday in East Carolina’s Pirate Collegiate Classic.
Seniors Georgina Blackman (72-75-72) and Katie Story (71-76-72) each tied for fifth at 219 to pace the Lady Toppers, who finished with an 878 (293-290-295) team tally in Greenville, N.C.
Host East Carolina won the team title at 865, and ECU’s Dorthea Forbrigd beat teammate Kate Law in a playoff for individual medalist honors at 215.
Since the beginning of the 2016-17 season, WKU has finished third or better as a team in six tournaments.
