HENDERSON, Nev. – The Nevada women's golf team concluded the 2019 fall season with a 10^th place finish at the Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown from Boulder Creek Golf Club.
 
The Wolf Pack saved its best team round for last as it combined for a 5-over 293 on Tuesday, which ranked in the top half of the field. Nevada went from a team score of 318 in the opening round, to a 300 in round two, and closed out its run at this event with a 293. The Pack finished the tournament at 47-over par to claim a top 10 in the 18-team field. Not a single team in the field was able to finish under par, but the event was won by tournament host UNLV at 15-over par, eight shots above runner-up San Francisco.
 
Nevada was led by one of its freshman on the final day as rookie Anitra Khoth fired the low-Pack round of the entire tournament with a 1-under 71. Khoth was the only Nevada player to record a round under par this week. She totaled four birdies throughout her round, including three on her last 10 holes. Her sub-par round helped her jump 19 spots on the individual leaderboard and finish in a tie for 48^th at 14-over par.
 
The Pack had two other finishers tie with Khoth in 48^th as senior Jenny Krause and sophomore Danni Ujimori also finished at 14-over. Both Ujimori and Krause shot 2-over rounds of 74 on the final day, each posting their best rounds of the tournament. Sophomore Victoria Gailey was Nevada's top finisher however as she posted a tie for 37^th place at 12-over par. Gailey also turned in a 2-over 74 on Tuesday, marking her best round of the event. Senior Katy Rutherford also shot a 74 in the final round to tie for 41^st place at 13-over par.
 
Tereza Melecka of East Tennessee State and Elina Saksa of UNLV shared the individual title, both finishing at 4-under par. They were the only players in the field of 96 to finish the event under par.
