Myah McDonald
Thanks to a strong final round of the Branch Law Firm Dick McGuire Invitational, New Mexico gained three spots on the leaderboard, but that still left the Lobos in fifth place Monday behind winner Denver.
UNM freshman Myah McDonald turned in a consistent effort to finish tied for fifth, with a 1-under for the tournament, making her best performance as a Lobo.
McDonald’s 215 was seven strokes behind leader Carly Strole of Grand Canyon.

“It starts off at the tee. All of my drives were going right where I wanted them to,” McDonald said. “I was giving myself the best chance to make a good approach shot, and my putting was very good. I was able to make a lot of par saves, which was really crucial going into the end on the last few holes.”
