The Georgia women’s golf team wasn’t satisfied with just winning the Illini Invitational.

The 20th ranked Bulldogs shot a second-best tournament score in school history of 15-under 849, tying with Louisville atop the team leaderboard during the Oct. 11-12 tournament, according to GeorgiaDogs.com.

With the entire tournament played under a shotgun format where pairing remained the same for all three rounds, Isabella Holpfer tied for sixth individually at 5-under 211. Caroline Craig and Jo Hua Hung also starred, finishing tied for 13th at 3-under 213, according to the website.

Coach Josh Brewer took special notice of his team’s strong accomplishments.

"It was hard today, with everyone starting in different places with a shotgun start and the golf course playing under very different conditions for everyone," he told GeorgiaDogs.com. "Then, you're not sure who's keeping live scoring and if it's correct. You just play as well as you can and hope for the best. I think we were the one team in the field that was up around first or second for the entire tournament.

The win represented the Bulldogs' 15th team title during Brewer's 10 seasons at the helm and the program’s 96th all-time. The 15-under score was just four strokes short of the school record of 19-under 845 at the 2016 Annika Intercollegiate.

"Everyone has worked hard and they're all willing to listen," Brewer told the website. "We think we have a special group this season. We know we're building for what's coming next April and May, but we have lots of tournaments before then when we can create some neat memories from this season. We know the ultimate prizes are at the end of the season, and we want to make sure we're ready for SECs and then Scottsdale (for the NCAA Championships)."
