Koo stayed in the 60s for all three rounds, starting the tournament shooting a 67, followed by back-to-back 68s in the final two rounds. The Cerritos, California, native had 19 birdies throughout the tournament and one eagle, which she got on the last hole to tie her teammate for first place. This is the fifth first-place finish of her collegiate career.

From there, the Torrance, California, native went two under par for the second round and then came back by going five under par. With 16 birdies and only three bogeys, she remained steady throughout the tournament to secure the win. This is the first time she has finished in first place in her collegiate career.
Also garnering Freshman of the Week honors is Sarah Hammett. The Gold Coast, Australia, native wrapped up her second tournament with the Trojans by finishing in 11th place.
