TCU, Angosta take team and individual titles for second time in three seasons
SAN MARCOS, Texas – Once again, TCU women's golf and Kirstin Angosta stand alone at the Jim West Challenge.
TCU won the tournament for the second time in three seasons on Monday at Kissing Tree Golf Club, signing for a 20-under 844. The Horned Frogs notched an eight-stroke victory over runner-up Missouri.
Angosta is the first two-time medalist in event history. She birdied her final two holes to finish 10 strokes under par (206) and claim a share of the individual championship alongside Grace Quintanilla of tournament host Texas State. Angosta posted the exact same score that secured her the outright tournament title her sophomore year in 2024.
"This tournament is always such an incredible week," said TCU head coach Angie Ravaioli-Larkin. "The West family and Texas State go above and beyond for all the student-athletes. To come away with a win both individually with Kirstin and this team makes it even more special. I am so proud of the discipline and dedication from all players and coaches. We have something special and this is just the beginning."
TCU became the first program to win the Jim West Challenge three times. The tournament was incepted in 2011. The Horned Frogs first claimed the crown in 2018.
The victory signified TCU's 56th all-time championship and first team title since triumphing at The Chevron Collegiate on Feb. 23, 2025.
Ravaioli-Larkin won her 22nd championship at the helm of the Horned Frogs.
Angosta earned the distinction of being one of only five players in program history to capture multiple medals. She is the first Frog to achieve the feat since Sabrina Iqbal in 2022.
TCU finished 22 strokes under par over rounds two and three.
The Horned Frogs began their final trip around Kissing Tree in possession of a three-shot lead over the Tigers. A half-dozen birdies across holes three through seven brought TCU's score to 18-under and increased its advantage to nine strokes at the turn.
Missouri, which played alongside the Frogs, clawed its way back to within three shots following the 14th green. Angosta, Min-Gaultier and Ella Forss – all of whom placed inside the top-10 – slammed the door.
The trio combined for eight birdies over their final four holes. Min-Gaultier was the nail in the coffin. The 2025 All-American birdied all four. Angosta and Forss closed birdie on 17 and 18 to make the end result academic.
Forss notched her team-leading third top-10 in five starts thus far in the 2026-27 campaign. The freshman tied for fifth at four-under 212. She shot an even 72 in the final round.
Angosta was the catalyst behind the championship, but Min-Gaultier was the x-factor. After signing for a 76 in round one, she finished six strokes under par over her final 36 holes. Together, her and Angosta were 18-under collectively across rounds two and three.
Min-Gaultier moved 14 spots up the leaderboard on the final day and into a tie for 10th (-2, 214). She registered her team-leading 12th career top-10 in 29 starts in purple.
Claire Swathwood gave TCU four Frogs in the top-20, as the junior came in at one-over and tied for 20th. Swathwood was one of four golfers to shoot par-or-better in the final round. She matched Forss with a 72.
Gracie McGovern tied for 23rd with a score of three-over 219 to round out the TCU lineup.
Angosta matched her career-best low-54 score vs. par while Forss set a collegiate personal record.
She also joined Iqbal, Caitlin Macnab and Lois Lau as one of just four Frogs to finish 10-or-more strokes under par in multiple tournaments.
The Horned Frogs tallied a tournament-leading 58 birdies. Their 42 bogeys were tied with Missouri for the fewest of any team. TCU topped the field in both par-4 and par-5 scoring.
TCU concluded the fall portion of its season in San Marcos. The Horned Frogs opened the year with a runner-up finish in Japan at the Pan Pacific University Golf Super League tournament and tacked a third top-five finish onto its resume at the Schooner Fall Classic.
The calendar will have turned to 2027 when the Frogs next compete together. TCU opens its spring semester schedule south of the border on Jan. 29-30 at the Collegiate Invitational at Guadalajara Country Club in Mexico.
