Credit the freshmen: USC won its fourth consecutive regional on Saturday, this time with major help from two freshmen.
Annie Park, the top-ranked player in the country, and Kyung Kim, reigning U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links champion, went a combined 11 under at the Stanford University Golf Course. Kim posted 8-under 63 while Park contributed 68. Kim won the individual title at Stanford last fall as the team won its first of six victories so far this season.
USC, Golfweek’s top-ranked team and the top seed in the West Regional, finished one shot ahead of Purdue. The Trojans’ final-round 4-under 280 helped them climb ahead of the Boilermakers in the final round and finish at 7-over 859 for the tournament.
Park finished tied for individual medalist honours with Purdue’s Paula Reto. Both players shot 7-under 206 for 54 holes. Kim was part of a tie for third two shots back.

Short shots: Georgia will host the NCAA Championship later this month, but the Bulldogs won’t play as a team. Georgia came up two shots short of the top 8, but will still be represented by senior Emilie Burger, who finished seventh to qualify as an individual. ... North Dakota State’s Amy Anderson (a US Curtis Cup player) will end her college career with 20 victories.
The senior did not qualify for the national championship as an individual, and her team did not finish inside the top 8. Anderson still holds the unofficial record for most career collegiate titles.
