Freshman Lacey Uchida tied for 15th at the Mountain West Championship as the Rams slip in the final round
RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. – Colorado State slipped in the final round and finished eighth at the 2022 Mountain West Women's Golf Championship Wednesday. The three-day, 54-hole event, hosted by the Mountain West, was played at the Dinah Shore Tournament Course at Mission Hills Country Club (Par 72 – 6,270 yards) in Rancho Mirage, Calif.

The Rams were unable to keep the momentum going from Tuesday's round and shot a 17-over 305 in the final round and finished at 45-over 909. No. 5 San Jose State cruised to a 30-shot team victory, finishing at 4-under 860 ahead of runner-up New Mexico at 26-over 890. Fresno State was third at 27-over 891, with Boise State (28-over 892) and No. 50 UNLV (29-over 893) completing the top five teams.
Â
Freshman Lacey Uchida was the leader for CSU with at tie for 15th at 9-over 225. Sophomore Sofia Torres was next at 11-over 227, tied for 21st with teammate junior Andrea Bergsdottir. Junior Gabby Minier completed her competition at 14-over 230, with freshman Pemika Arphamongkol rounding out the team scoring at 21-over 237, tied for 40th. Natasha Andrea Oon of San Jose State led from start-to-finish, as the No. 6 player in the country won medalist honors by seven shots with a 10-under 206.
Â
"We are definitely disappointed at how we played today," head coach Laura Cilek said. "We were in a good spot to make a move going into the day, and we did not capitalize on it.  Looking at the big picture, it was a great year of development for us. We have the entire roster returning next year, and I am confident, with the hard work we put in over the summer, that we will be ready to get out and compete again in the fall."
