Tuesday marked Bristow's fourth straight top-10 overall finish that began with a school record tournament score at UINLV (first, 208).

Bristow and the rest of the women's golf team will take this week off before heading to the Pacific-10 Conference Championships, hosted by USC at Palos Verdes Golf Club, Monday-Wednesday, April 21-23.
