In the final round Rutgers shot 302 (+18). The team total of +51 was still good enough to pass Minnesota for 11th place.

On the positive side, this is the best finish in the 7 B1G Championships since joining the conference (no 2020 tourney). Previously the women had finished 12th 3 times and last 3 times.

Rutgers was led by Maeve Rossi's +1, 71. Leigha Devine and Rikki Nordvik shot 75s. Nordvik's T20 was the best finish on the team.

#18 Michigan won the title, shooting 5 over par for the 3 days. #34 MSU finished 2nd with a 9 over, followed by #36 Northwestern and Ohio State at 12 over. In the Individual Championship, Michigan's Monet Chun's 8 Under was 4 strokes better than OSU's Faith Choi

This ends the '21-'22 season for the Women's team.

Wonder if Hobbs will keep the HC around. Finishing with the best B1G Tourney record might be enough to save her job for at least one more year.

I don't know. I wonder if RU isn't simply a very hard job to succeed at due to a number of reasons, including location and facilities.
