The Ohio State women's golf team is one step closer to a national championship after the Buckeyes clinched the No. 4 seed in eight-team match-play bracket for the NCAA title.
The fourth-place finish ties the best finish in school history after stroke play as the Buckeyes finished fourth in 2003. It's also the seventh top-10 finish at the NCAA championships in program history — all of which have come under the leadership of current head coach Therese Hession.
