AUSTIN, Texas -- The TCU women's golf team shot a final-round 321 Wednesday to tie for fifth at the 35th annual Betsy Rawls Longhorn Invitational.

The scheduled 54-hole event was shortened to 36 holes after Tuesday's second round was canceled due to inclement weather.

The Horned Frogs posted their fifth top-10 finish in seven tournaments this season.

Freshman Allyson Ferguson was the top TCU individual as she tied for seventh. The Houston native carded a 10-over-par 156, including a final-round 77. It was her first top-10 finish in five collegiate tournaments.

Ferguson, the lone Frog to score under 80 in both rounds, finished just five strokes behind medalist Stacy Lewis of Arkansas.

The 29th-ranked Frogs shot their second-straight 321 to tie No. 20 Notre Dame for fifth with a 66-over 642, 19 strokes behind New Mexico. The No. 28 Lobos totaled a 623 for a one-stroke victory over fifth-ranked Florida.

TCU senior Carrie Morris shot a second-round 79 to tie for 32nd with a 36-hole score of 18-over 162. She had a birdie on hole No. 10.

Valentine Derrey and Melissa Loh tied for 38th with 163s. Prisela Campbell totaled a 169.

TCU returns to action March 29 at the Bryan National Collegiate in Brown Summit, N.C.
