Gonzaga’s Victoria Fallgren placed third with a 222 total after a final round of 1-over 72.

• Moscow High graduate Chris Williams, the top-ranked amateur in the world, birdied five of his last 10 holes to card a 3-under-par 68 and help the Washington Huskies vault into second place after the second round of The Prestige at PGA West in La Quinta, Calif.

Williams and two others are tied for first at 4-under.

UCLA leads the team race at 6-under, followed by Washington at 4-under.
