The Montana women's golf team wrapped up the Pat Lesser Harbottle Invitational and its fall tournament schedule with a third-round 301 on Tuesday at the Tacoma Country and Golf Club in Lakewood, Wash.
It was the Grizzlies' best round since last spring, when they shot a second-round 301 at the Wyoming Cowgirl Classic in Maricopa, Ariz.
Freshman Tricia Joyce (78-76-73) shot a final-round 73 to move up into a tie for 38th in the individual standings. She began the day tied for 60th.
She birdied her first hole of the day, the par-5 16th, and closed with a birdie as well, carding a 2 on the par-3 15th.
She had four birdies on the day, a number matched by Brooklyn Van Bebber (79-83-74), who shot a 74, her best round as a collegiate golfer.
Faith D'Ortenzio (76-79-76) opened with a 76 on Monday morning and closed with a 76. She shot three rounds in the 70s for the first time in her collegiate career. She tied for 57th in the standings.
Allison Sobol (76-78-79) also played three rounds in the 70s. She tied for 70th.
Despite Montana's solid finish, the Grizzlies were unable to move up from 17th in the 18-team field.
They finished one stroke behind Boise State, four behind Wyoming, six behind Santa Clara and seven behind Cal State Northridge.
Gonzaga (290-278-292) won the tournament by 13 strokes over Seattle (292-295-286), 20 over Nevada (298-290-292).
Gonzaga's Quynn Duong (69-69-71) won the individual title by four strokes over Houston Baptist's Elise Parel (74-70-69).
Four golfers finished the tournament under par.
Montana won't compete again for nearly five months. The spring schedule opens at the Lady Thunderbird Invitational in St. George, Utah, on March 12-13.
