Washington is tied for second after Sunday, two-shots off the lead, in the Westbrook Invitational. SooBin Kim is tied for the individual lead heading into Monday's final round.

Washington claimed the team championship at the Edean Ihlanfeldt Invitational for the first time ever and SooBin Kim set a tournament record by shooting 11 under to claim medalist honors.
