PHOENIX, Ariz. – Toledo opened its spring by posting a six-stroke victory at the Grand Canyon Invitational, the first tournament title for Jenny Coluccio as the Rockets' head coach.

Seniors Pimchanok Kawil, Pinyada Kuvanun and Natcha Daengpiem led UT to the victory by finishing in the Top 10 of the tournament standings. Kawil placed fourth with a two-under par 214 (71-72-71), Kuvanun tied for fifth at even-par 216 (69-74-73) and Daengpiem finished ninth at four-over par 220 (72-73-75).

Daengpiem tallied a team-high 10 birdies in the tourney with Kawil and Kuvanun registering nine and eight birdies, respectively.

"It was a great tournament and I want to congratulate everyone on the team," Kawil said. "It was a good opportunity for us to get outside and try out what we've been working on. I am happy with our result and really had a lot of fun on the course. Thank you Coach Jenny and Coach Sathika for helping get us prepared for the tournament. I thought we had a lot of good energy and we are going to continue to work hard and be ready for our next tournament."

Rounding out the Rocket lineup were juniors Saranlak Tumfong (T-57th/73-78-81=232) and Thunpijja Sukkasem (T-66th/79-75=79=233).

South Dakota State's Teresa Toscano captured the individual title at four-under 212 by winning a playoff against Southern Utah's Pluem Youngyuan and Lamar's Elodie Chaplet.
