TOLEDO, Ohio | Anna Behnsen fired a career-low four-under par 209 (72-68-69) at the Inverness Intercollegiate hosted by Toledo at the Inverness Club to capture her first tournament victory on Tuesday. Behnsen was the lone player in the 65-player field to finish under par on the major-championship course.

Behnsen bested her previous three-round low by seven strokes (216, Hurricane Invitational (10/28-10/29/24). 

Behnsen tied for first on par 3 scoring (2.78) and led the field on par-4 scoring as she was the lone player average under par at 3.90.

After entering the final day in ninth, South Alabama (311-309-293—913) recorded its best round of the event to move up three spots and finish in sixth.

Head Coach Marcelo Huarte 
- On Behnsen's performance this week:
"Words truly can't capture how incredible Anna's performance was this week. She was the only player to finish under par on a major championship-level golf course against a world-class field, and she won by six shots. We always knew she was capable of something like this, and she proved it in the most emphatic way. I am beyond proud of her."
