The DU Women's Golf team missed the NCAA Tournament by one stroke yesterday. Needless to say this is a crippling blow to a program that finished 5th in the NCAA Tournament last season and had two of the hottest recruits in the nation join the team this season. Former three time All-American Stephanie Sherlock bogeyed the last five holes of her collegiate career. DU Golfer Kimberly Kim will still play in the NCAA Tournament. The trouble for DU started earlier in the season when Freshman Sue Kim quit the team.
