Cardinals' Last Action:
Jenna Mrozinski (North St. Paul, Minn.) continued to lead the way for the Cardinals, as the senior carded a second-round 93 to help the Cardinals to a 16th-place finish at the Wartburg Fall Invitational.

SMU at Viterbo Invitational — A Year Ago:
September 24-25, 2011: Gia Puch opened the 36-hole tournament with an 86 — her second-lowest 18-hole score of the season — and followed that up with an 88 at the La Crosse Country Club for a 174 total. Puch's effort helped the Cardinals to a fourth-place showing in their final tournament before the season-ending conference championships next weekend.

Up Next:
The Cardinals will square off against Viterbo in a dual match next Saturday at the Sparta Golf Course in Sparta, Wis. The dual will be the final tune-up for the Cardinals before the season-ending MIAC Championships on Oct. 6-7-8 at Bunker Hills Golf Course in Coon Rapids, Minn.

Four-year letterwinner Jenna Mrozinski (North St. Paul, Minn.) — the only returner on this year's roster, who carded a team-best 96 in SMU's dual-match loss to Macalester on Aug. 31 — was the team leader again at the Wartburg Invitational last weekend. Mrozinski opened the 36-hole tournament with a 92 and followed up with a second-round 93 to help the Cardinals to a 16th-place finish. … Along with Mrozinski's 92-93—185, the Cardinals got a 103-100—203 from Jennie Marx (Austin, Minn.), a 104-105—209 from Kendra Palkowski (Arcadia, Wis.), a 111-103—124 from Haley Jung (Monticello, Minn.), and a 118-125—243 from Jenna Niles (Hector, Minn.) at last weekend's Wartburg Invitational. … Mrozinski, who had not posted a round in the 80s during her first two years as a Cardinal, shot an 86 during the second round of last year's Wartburg Invitational, then recorded a career-best 85 during the final round of the 54-hole MIAC?Championships.
