NAPLES, Fla. -- Lydia Ko shot a tournament-record 10-under 62 on Friday to take a three-stroke lead in the CME Group Tour Championship, putting the top-ranked New Zealander in position to win the player of the year award with a victory Sunday.Ko birdied four of the first six holes and had seven birdies and a bogey on the back nine to get to 12-under 132 in the season finale. Ryann OToole (67) and So Yeon Ryu (68) were tied for second, and Sei Young Kim (68) and Beatriz Recari (68) followed at 8 under.Going into today definitely my goal wasnt the 62, said Ko, the 2014 winner at Tiburon Golf Club. The first three holes made great birdies. I was going in with really good momentum, and I was able to carry that for pretty much the rest of my round. I think I was putting good, so if I was within a distance that I felt comfortable I felt like, `Hey, I could hole this.Ko needs a victory to top Ariya Jutanugarn in the player of the year race, and also would take the season points title and $1 million bonus with a win. The points in the CME Globe standings were reset for the finale, so Ko, Jutanugarn and Brooke Henderson all control their destinies.I think the big key mindset for me is that Ive been not really thinking about everything that could happen, Ko said. For me to win player the year I know I need to win this championship. A lot of things come with that. So to me, its more important to finish off my season strong. I think that way I dont feel more pressure about everything thats going on.Ko is fighting Jutanugarn for the money title and In Gee Chun for the Vare Trophy for the lowest scoring average. Jutanugarn, the tour victory leader with five, was tied for 19th at 4 under after a 68.I started to make some putts, Jutanugarn said. Today was pretty good day for me.Chun (69) was tied for sixth at 7 under, and Henderson (72) was tied for 38th at even par.The 62 matched Kos lowest score of the season, shot in the second round of her Walmart NW Arkansas victory in June. She has four victories this year.Going into today, I just wanted to focus on my game, Ko said. I knew I had a great pairing Eun Hee (Ji) and Mi Hyang (Lee). Mi Hyang said, `Hey, whenever you play with us you seem to play well. Maybe its the good vibes I got from them. Obviously, its a great round. Its a better position, even better than I could have imagined. Even on the weekend I just got to focus and keep playing great.Ko is using Gary Matthews as her caddie for the second straight event. She fired Jason Hamilton -- now with Ha Na Jang -- and used Sargunan Suntharaj in Malaysia, then teamed with Matthews in Japan.She worked with instructor David Leadbetter on the range late Thursday.It was just more about my iron play, Ko said. I hit my drives really well yesterday. My irons were kind of on and off. Not that many where I was looking for birdies. So, it was just very simple. Just in the takeaway where I wasnt going too out. Its something that you normally do, but especially when youre hitting it good, its more about the basics and the little things.OToole had six birdies and a bogey.I think usually my drives are my strong point, OToole said. Right now Im hitting these little cuts that arent going as far as they could. Definitely could give me shorter irons in. But Im striking my irons well, putting myself in position.Ryu earned a spot in the final group Saturday with friend Ko.Its think its definitely going to be really fun to competing with world No. 1 player, Ryu said. She is not only great player, shes really great person. ... She loves food like me, so we just talk a lot of thing about food when we are on the golf course.First-round leader Shanshan Feng followed her opening 66 with a 73 to drop into a tie for 16th at 5 under.

The 108-point margin of victory surpassed the 102 set by Grambling when it beat Jarvis Christian College 139-37 in 1986.We could have beaten a lot of teams today, Baylor coach Kim Mulkey said. We were just clicking on all cylinders. As I tell them during the game, Im not looking at the score. I am looking at your defense, I am looking at turnovers, I am looking at your execution of things. I was made aware after the game of all the records. Youre happy for players who break records, and when you get a chance for them to stay in another minute to get another basket, you do it because its not always going to be that way.That rout came only a day after South Florida scored 129 points in a victory over St. Francis. The 129 points were the most scored this season. That lasted for less than a day. Jose Fernandezs squad had seven players in double figures in the 129-80 victory and made 48 field goals.

The latest victory Sunday saw the team rally from a 23-point deficit against Holy Cross.It was something Ive never experienced before, Verdi said of the small roster. I had to take a step back, customize our practices. I had to be creative. We just had to focus on little tthings.dddddddddddd.Verdi took over the program after spending the last four seasons at Eastern Michigan. UMass has seven scholarship players, with only six that are healthy enough to play right now.Freshman Hailey Leidel is the nations second-leading rookie scorer behind UNC Greensboros Nadine Soliman. Verdi also has to rely on junior Maggie Mulligan, who is near the top in the country in double-doubles.Our best basketball is ahead of us, Verdi said. Its the cards were dealt with and has put us in a position later on the season to be more successful. Our freshmen had to step up and step on the floor right away and play big minutes for us. Weve been through the ringer if you will as of right now.ROAR LIONS ROAR: Columbia finished off the first part of its season 8-2, the first time the Lions have won eight of their first 10 games in program history.

However, there is still a lot of basketball to be played and we have a lot of things to work on.Columbia is led by junior Camille Zimmerman, who became the 11th player in school history to score 1,000 points when she reached that milestone in a win over LIU last Monday. The Lions are on break now for exams and the holidays.HOLDING THE FORT: Colorado State won its program-record 22nd consecutive game at home on Sunday night, beating Seattle 66-62 to best the mark set in 1998-99.
