LAST TIME OUT
Radford's Beatriz Mosquera Quintas tied for a third place finish at the F&M Bank APSU Intercollegiate, while the team finished in sixth place. Mosquera Quintas' third place finish was the highest finish for Radford since 2016 and helped her earn Big South Conference Freshman of the Week. The Highlanders also witnessed Natalie Welsh finish in the top 30, with Sidney Walker placing in the 31^st spot, falling just one spot short of the top 30.

HEATING UP
Mosquera Quintas' third place finish was her second consecutive top 10 finish after placing eighth at the William & Mary Invitational back in September. The F&M Bank APSU Intercollegiate was only the second tournament that Mosquera Quintas has competed in since she began playing for Radford this fall.

UP NEXT
Radford will rest for a week before traveling to Boone, N.C., to compete in the Hounds & Ears Intercollegiate hosted by Appalachian State at the Hounds & Ears Club. The tournament is set to start on Monday, October 22^nd.
