Lowe on Towson's team performance
"After the first two days, we really learned what our mistakes were. We were able to fix them in the final round. We are super happy with how we turned it around today and now we are looking forward to Hawai'i."
Lowe on what helped her shoot 71.
"The first day of the tournament, I struggled putting during the entire first round. I practiced and worked it out, and the next round my putting was better but I made an 11 on a par 5 so that didn't help my score at all. I knew that other than that hole I played decent in the second round and I was able to carry it over to the final round. Everything felt put together and I was super confident going into the final round and that's how I was able to finish strong."
