WEST POINT, Miss. – A beautiful three days for the inaugural Magnolia Invitational wrapped Tuesday with Mississippi State junior Katie Holt tying for eighth and leading the Mississippi State women's golf team to a tie for fourth at Old Waverly Golf Club in West Point, Miss.

We are getting better every day, and I'm excited for the future of this team. Hail State!"
