  • Division I Women's Golf Championships
    DIVISION I WOMEN’S GOLF CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2016 Championship 2 History 4 All-Time Team Results 11 2016 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Washington beats Stanford to win NCAA golf title: The Washington Huskies earned the school’s first NCAA Division I women’s golf national championship, defeating Stanford 3-2 Wednesday afternoon at the Eugene Country Club, a par 72, 6,369-yard course. With the match tied at 1-all, Ying Luo holed out from 51 yards on 18 for birdie to halve and take the match 1-up over Casey Danielson. “I used my 64-degree wedge, and I couldn’t believe it went in,” Luo said. “I was thinking to put that in, and I did it. I was thinking about Sarah [Rhee].” Washington then looked like it was on the cusp of clinching the match behind the play of Julianne Alvarez as the freshman was 3-up after 15. However, Stanford’s Lauren Kim came back, winning 16, 17 and 18 to bring the match back to all square. “It started on 15 where I was hitting my approach in and I happened to get a glance at the scoreboard and I think we were down in three matches so that motivated me to turn on some heat,” Kim said. While that match went to extra holes, Mariah Stackhouse tied the overall match up at 2-all when she won 1-up on Sarah Rhee. Stackhouse was 3-up on Rhee heading into the 15th hole before the Washington freshman picked up wins on three straight holes to bring the match to all square and force a play-off.
