"Jill really came out and played well after having the asthma attack and trip to the hospital yesterday. She really showed some determination today to play well," Lakowske said.

Winning the team honors was tournament host Stanford, who edged out Denver by registering a 4-over-par 572 (287-285). Kay Hoey of Long Beach State won the individual title by shooting a 8-under-par 134 (65-69).

Oregon State, with its third place finish, defeated seven higher-ranked teams, which should help for a bid to regional competition.

The teams included No. 28 San Jose State, No. 35 San Francisco, No. 42 Hawaii, No. 46 and conference opponent Washington State, No. 54 UC Davis, No. 62 Fresno State and No. 65 Long Beach State.

"They have been doing a lot of work on their mental game and their short game," Lakowske said. "They knew what they were capable of, and today it showed. It was a great performance today. It's very exciting to see them play well. I'm really proud of the team. We just have to go from here now and see what happens."

"The last couple of weeks ought to grab some attention of the Regionals committee. It's still up in the air, but if we perform at conferences like we did today, there is a good chance we grab a spot at Regionals."

Oregon State heads next to the Pac-10 Championships on April 23rd.
