Arkansas capped its final women's golf tournament of the regular season with a match-play victory over No. 1 Duke Sunday.

The No. 7 Razorbacks picked up wins from senior Regina Plasencia and a pair of freshmen, Maria Fassi and Cara Gorlei, to beat the Blue Devils 3-2 on the final day of the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic in Athens, Ga.

It was the second straight match-play win for Arkansas at the event, as it also defeated Oregon State. The Razorbacks tied Auburn in the first round of match play and tied for ninth during stroke play.

Arkansas returns to the course April 15 for the SEC Championship in Birmingham, Ala.
