KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. --- Third-ranked Rollins College shot a final round 290 and won the team title on a playoff at the 2007 Tusculum College/Kiawah Island Women's Intercollegiate Sunday afternoon at Cougar Point Golf Course. The Tars finished with 306-290=596 to tie top-ranked Florida Southern College, who posted 305-291=596 over the 36-hole tournament.

The tournament title was decided on a tie-breaker using the lowest score of each team's fifth player. Rollins' Cristina Gugier posted 85-78=163, two shots better than Mocs' fifth player.

Rollins' Marie-Pierre Bernier won medalist honors as she fired a final round five-under par 67 to shoot 75-67=142 (-2), edging out Kim Ulander of Florida Southern, who posted 74-69=143 (-1) on Sunday.
