CHARLESTON, S.C. – Sophomore Anna Foster led Auburn's individuals with a third-round 70 (-2) on Tuesday, but all three Tigers in the field finished the Cougar Classic in the top 40. 

Foster matched her previous career low and finished with five birdies on the day. At 1-over through three rounds, she placed in a tie for 29th. She's now finished 40th or better in five of the six regular-season events she's played in dating back to last season. 

Megan Schofill was Auburn's top finisher this week taking 12th overall in her 2021-22 debut. After back-to-back rounds under par Monday, the junior shot an even-par 72 to finish at 3-under for the tournament. She's now shot par or better in 27 of the 47 rounds she's played at Auburn and lowered her career average per round to 72.19. 

Rounding out the Auburn contingent in Charleston was senior Julie McCarthy who finished tied for 36th individually at 3-over after carding a 74 (+2) in Tuesday's third round. 

The Auburn trio each made nine birdies, and all three shot at least one round under par. 

Next up for the Tigers is the Mason Rudolph Championship in Franklin, Tennessee later this month. The three-day tournament is slated to begin Friday, Sept. 24.
