MIDLOTHIAN, Va. - The Bradley women's golf team turned in the second-best final-round score in the field with a 317 to finish second at the Spider Invitational, while senior Breanne Neufeld (Coaldale, Alberta/Kate Andrews) took third to pace three Braves in the top 15 in the final individual standings Tuesday at the par-72 Independence Golf Club in the final event of the fall for the Braves.

Neufeld shot a final round 77 during Tuesday's play to finish tied for third at 225.  She started the day three shots behind individual leader Rui Li of Pennsylvania, but Li's teammate Isabel Han fired a one-under par 71 Tuesday to take the individual title with a 54-hole score of 220.  Neufeld, who finished the fall with a 75.6 stroke average, moved into third in career rounds in the 70's at Bradley after pushing her career sub-80 rounds to 58.

Junior Kelly Amundrud (Calgary, Alberta/Strathcona Tweedsmuir) saved her best round of the tournament for the final day, carding a four-over 76 and finished six shots behind Neufeld in seventh (231).  Amundrud finished the fall schedule  with a team-best 74.7 stroke average and extended her streak of top-10 finishes to seven.

Junior Erin Gorman (Rockford, Ill./Boylan) shot an 80 Tuesday and senior Caitlin Deeken (California, Mo./California) shot a final-round 84 as the duo finished tied for 15th at 238.  Deeken finished in the top 20 for the third time this season, while Gorman's top 20 finish was the first of her career.

Pennsylvania took the team title, finishing with a three-round total of 902 with Bradley following in second at 932.  The Braves were 11 shots ahead of tournament-host Richmond (3rd - 943) and BU was 22 shots better than Old Dominion (4th - 954).  Rutgers was fifth in the standings at 962, while Dayton was one shot back in sixth at 963.  Fairfield took seventh (966) with Towson (8th - 990), Hollins University (9th - 1055) and Seton Hall (10th - 1078) rounding out the field, respectively. 

Bradley is scheduled to open its spring schedule March 4-6 at the Rio Verde Invitational in Rio Verde, Ariz.
