RIO GRANDE P.R. – The final 18 holes of tournament play were kind to TCU once more.
The Horned Frogs shot a two-under 286 on Tuesday to finish seventh outright at the Purdue Puerto Rico Classic, held at Grand Reserve Golf Club.
TCU ascended six spots on the team leaderboard over the course of its first of five spring regular season events. The squad's eight-player lineup sat 13th following Sunday's opening round before moving to 10th two days later.
The Horned Frogs concluded the tournament nine-over (873).
Tuesday's finale marked the third time TCU has finished under-par in its final round in 2023-24. The Horned Frogs turned in an eight-under 280 scorecard in its season debut at the Sam Golden Invitational in September. TCU closed the fall portion of its season by setting a school record for low round vs. par (-17, 271) one month later at the Jim West Invitational.
TCU finished ahead of No. 9 Ole Miss, No. 22 Purdue and No. 50 Minnesota in a 15-team field that included seven programs featured in the top-50 of the Spikemark NCAA women's golf rankings.
The Horned Frogs joined No. 38 Oklahoma State as one of two competing Big 12 teams to place a pair of golfers in the top-20 of the individual leaderboard.
Lois Lau and Sofia Barroso Sa tied for 16th at one-under 215.
Lau fired a team-best 70 (two-under), carding birdies on three of her last seven holes. The senior has finished even or under-par in 13 of her 15 rounds this season. She has now tallied 338 career birdies, putting her within 20 of breaking the program's individual career record.
Barroso Sa birdied or parred her final 13 holes on her way to a one-under 71. She shot a 71 on Sunday to position herself to break par for the tournament. The 16th place showing is Barroso Sa's second-best individual finish this season.
Kirstin Angosta proved invaluable in TCU's climb up the leaderboard. The freshman, who made her collegiate debut in the Caribbean, posted a two-over 218 to tie for 27th. Angosta bagged a team-leading nine birdies over the 54-hole affair.
Meagan Winans Shot an even-par round and tied for 52nd (+9, 225). Winans jumped 12 spots in the individual tables.
Charlotte Cattaneo tied for 85th at 22-over to round out TCU's showing.
