The Stanford women’s golf team shot a three-round score of 928 to finish seventh at this week’s Pac-10 Championships in Eugene, Ore.

Arizona snuck by UCLA for the title, as its final-round 288 gave the Wildcats a three-stroke victory over the Bruins.

The Cardinal’s 64-over-par total was 50 strokes behind the winning Wildcats and 19 strokes behind sixth-place Cal.

Stanford was led by freshman Kristina Wong, who tied for 16th with an eight-over-par 224. Wong finished 10 strokes behind the co-winners, Carlota Ciganda and Juliana Murcia of Arizona State.

Senior Angela King tied for 30th with a 233, while freshman Sally Watson and junior Rebecca Durham tied for 34th at 236. Sophomore Sydney Burlison tied for 38th with a 241.

Watson and Durham were recently named to the All-Pac-10 Second Team, while Wong was named an All-Pac-10 Honorable Mention.

The Cardinal’s next tournament will be the NCAA West Regionals. Stanford will host the tournament on its own golf course May 6-8, with the eight best teams advancing to the NCAA Championships.
