A team final round of 292, which was the lowest round of any team in the entire tournament, carried the Augustana women’s golf team to a first place finish at the NCAA Division II Women’s Golf Super Regional Wednesday afternoon.

The Vikings shot four over par on the day and shot 26 over par (890) over the three round regional.

Kali Trautman shot an even par final round and went one under par (215) for the tournament to win the super regional. This is the second first place finish for the Clear Lake, S.D. native and her fifth top-5 finish of the 2017-18 season.

With the championship finish at the super regional, Trautman and the Vikings advance to the NCAA Championships, which are held May 16-19 at Bay Oaks Country Club in Houston, Texas.
