LAKEWOOD RANCH, Fla. – The Western Michigan golf wrapped up the 2019 Mid-American Match Play Challenge at Lakewood Ranch Golf & Country Club on Tuesday, finishing in sixth place after going 2-2 during the two days.

After defeating Morehead State and falling to Northern Illinois on Monday, the Broncos advanced to the fifth-place match after beating Central Michigan, 3-2-0. Cameryn Lucia (6&4), Fiona Wang (3&2) and Jasmine Chee (4&2) were winners for WMU in the morning match.

Western Michigan then took on Eastern Michigan, falling 3-1-1, with senior Claire Hernandez picking up the lone win for the Broncos. Chee had the best individual record of all the Broncos, going 3-1-0 in the four matches.

"This weekend was great learning for our team," said head coach Elise Swartout-Mosher. "Going 2- was not what we wanted results wise, but we can take away a lot of positives. Now it's our job to take what we learned and apply it both in practice and when we get to Arizona in two weeks."

The Broncos are off next week and then to their second home, the Rio Verde Country Club to host the annual Rio Verde Invitational in Rio Verde, Ariz., on Feb. 22-24.
