LEBANON, Ohio -- Allison Lindley again led the Ball State women's golf team Sunday with a round of 77 as the Cardinals closed out the Mid-American Conference Championships.
Lindley, a former Iowa transfer, moved up five more spots to finish in a tie for 11th place. The Kokomo, Ind., product recorded a 54-hole total of 235 (+19) in her first appearance at the MAC Championships.
Ball State finished ninth on the team leaderboard at 986 over three days at Shaker Run Golf Club. The Cardinals closed with a round of 325 that also included an 80 from Meghan McDougall, an 83 from Kelsey Sear and an 85 from Mary Ellen Romero.
Kent State held onto its overnight lead to claim its 17th consecutive MAC title. The 35th-ranked Golden Flashes finished with a 54-hole total of 918 (+54). Eastern Michigan was 10 shots back in second place after posting the best final round of any team.
