EUREKA, Mo.— The UIndy women's golf team completed its 2022-23 season Friday at the NCAA DII Championships. The Greyhounds earned a spot in the national quarterfinals before falling the Nova Southeastern, 3-2. The tournament was held at Fox Run Golf Club just outside of St. Louis.
 
After a successful stroke play portion, the Greyhounds earned the No. 3 seed in the quarters, but had a tough draw with Nova Southeastern—Golfstat's No. 3-ranked team—and individual national champ Olivia Grønborg standing in their way. Both Anci Dy and Catharina Graf earned a point for Hounds, but the Sharks won the other three pairings to move on to the afternoon semifinals.

 
Teeing off from hole No. 10, Dy took a one stroke lead right out of the gate and ultimately never trailed in her matchup versus freshman Emma Larsen. Dy parred her final four holes to maintain her lead and card a 73, edging Larson by a single stroke.
 
Graf earned a more comfortable six-stroke win versus NSU's Ellen Ramstedt. The former finished with a 75 in her final round of the year, cruising past Ramstedt's 81.
 
Meanwhile. Katelyn Skinner made a strong finishing push but came up just short. The Evansville, Ind., native trailed by six strokes with seven holes to go and eventually lost by just two.
 
THURSDAY
The Greyhounds earned a spot in one of four quarterfinal matches. All five Greyhounds carded a 74 or better in the final round of stroke play, as the Hounds finished 54 holes of stroke play in third place with team scores of 299-294-287.
 
Dallas Baptist (+10) took the No. 1 seed, and each of the top six teams finished within eight stokes of each other. UIndy was one of only two schools to finish under par on Thursday.
 
The format shifts to a medal/match play for the remaining quarterfinals, semifinals and final. The Hounds will be matched up with sixth-seeded Nova Southeastern tomorrow morning. Both teams' five players will be paired up in twos, with the lowest 18-hole score from each pair earning one point for their team. The first team to three points will advance to the national semifinals tomorrow afternoon.

The medal/match play starts Friday morning at 9:40 a.m. ET. Click/tap here for the pairings.
 
Senior Catharina Graf fired a one-under 71 to grab a top-10 spot, good for All-America status. The Frankfort, Germany, native finished 54 holes at +2, good for a share of eighth place.
 
Freshman Ava Ray did her one better on Thursday, firing an even 70 to jump up 17 spots to T-14 in her first appearance at Nationals.
 
Sophomore Anci Dy finished at +4 as well, sharing 14th with Ray. Elyse Stasil (+6) carded her second straight 73 to tie for 26th, and Katelyn Skinner (+16) shared 59th.

WEDNESDAY

Dy carded four birdies in her even-par round Wednesday, vaulting 22 spots on the individual leaderboard and into a tie for 12th place. She currently shares her spot at +3 with teammate Catharina Graf, as the freshly-crowned Elite 90 winner followed yesterday's 73 with a two-over 74 today.
