SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Sophomore Kristin Ingram fired a career-best twounder 70 leading the seventh-ranked University of Arkansas women's golf team to a tie for fifth place at the 2008 NCAA West Regional in Sacramento, Calif., Saturday.

Ingram and the Lady Razorbacks counted a final round 294 for an 882 (291-297-294 ) on the par 72, 6, 338-yard Orchard Course at Lincoln Hills Golf Club. That tied No. 14 Oklahoma State (293-293-296 ) in fifth place. The top eight teams from each of three regionals contested this week advance to the NCAA Championship in Albuquerque, N. M., May 20-23.

" What a day, " said Arkansas head coach Shauna Estes-Taylor. " I think I've aged about 30 years today. Ya know, our motto all year was to finish strong and we did that today. Our last six holes were incredible. The kids made the turn and saw the leader board and realized we were in a little trouble. But they dug deep and found a way to get it done. I couldn't be more proud. "

Arkansas' four counting scores played the final six holes one over as the team rallied from a tie for ninth to a tie for fifth.
