Nail Posts Career‑Best 36‑Hole Total, Takes 19th

Freshman Vanessa Nail continued her upward trajectory, finishing 19th while recording a personal‑best 36‑hole tournament score. Her highlight came on a par‑3 where she drained a 35‑foot birdie putt, one of the most memorable shots of the championship. Nail's improvement throughout the season showed up in full force on the conference stage.

Robison and LaNear Keep Cottey's Pack Tight
