The host Mustangs finished in a tie for first place with Viterbo (Wis.) in the team best ball championship. Mount Mercy and Viterbo finished with 243 team best ball scores after 27 holes, with the V-Hawks earning the tiebreaker. Friday's opening round was limited to nine holes due to inclement weather.

For Mount Mercy, freshman Bailee Goodfellow, who had rounds of 43 on Friday and 83 on Saturday, and her partner, sophomore Katelyn Hufford (49-84), posted best ball scores of 41 on Friday and 79 on Saturday to tie for third in the medalist race. Sophomores Laura Wilberg (45-85) and Kristine Kouba (45-92) had rounds of 43 and 80 to place fifth. Sophomore Jessica Mrkvicka and freshman Kayla McGrew teamed up for rounds of 45 and 96 for the Mustangs.

Mount Mercy heads to Peosta for the Clarke Fall Invitational on Sunday at 9:00 a.m.
