The Red Raiders concluded the regular season on Tuesday, narrowly falling to host Oklahoma and North Texas in the semifinal and third-place matches at Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club.
NORMAN, Okla. – The Texas Tech women's golf team finished fourth at The Match Play at Jimmie Austin on Tuesday, hosted by Oklahoma at Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club. Following a quarterfinal win on Monday against K-State, the Sooners narrowly defeated the Red Raiders in the semifinal round on Tuesday morning and fell to North Texas in the afternoon's third-place match to conclude the event.
The host and one-seed Oklahoma dropped fourth-seeded Texas Tech by a score of 2-1-2. The Red Raiders' win came via Gala Dumez defeating Isabelle Schlick, 1-up. The Red Raiders then suffered a 3-1-1 defeat to the No. 3-seed Mean Green in the afternoon's third-place match for their fourth-place position out of the eight teams at The Match Play at Jimmie Austin. Kylee Loewe recorded Tech's win versus North Texas, defeating Bouquet Subsomboom 3&2.
Loewe was a bright spot for Tech on Tuesday logging a win and a tie. After a hard-fought semifinal match against Oklahoma, where she earned a tie after trailing by two after the first 13 holes, the junior earned the win next time out in the afternoon's third-place match against UNT. Loewe capped her tournament dropping just two holes during her third-place matchup.
Dumez, the Red Raiders' morning victor, earned the win against Oklahoma late on the back nine following a stretch of five draws in a tie match over holes 11-16, the senior won hole no. 17 to break the deadlock and ultimately secure a 1-up victory. Dumez fell 2&1 in the afternoon.Â
Cameron Freund made an inspiring effort to earn a draw in her third-place matchup against the Mean Green. Trailing by two with two holes left, Freund recorded a birdie and par to win the final two holes and notch a tie for the Red Raiders.
Tuesday's action marked the Red Raiders' final tournament of the 2023-24 regular season. Postseason play is next up as Texas Tech travels to Houston for the Big 12 Championship at Houston Oaks Country Club, April 18-20.
