REHOBOTH BEACH, DEL. – Junior Lizzie Win (Sylvania, Ohio) became the sixth golfer in Seton Hall women's golf history to claim an individual title and lifted the Pirates to the team victory at the 2018 Delaware Lady Blue Hen Invitational on Sunday.

Win had two birdies and 12 pars in Sunday's final round in route to a 2-over-par, 73. Entering the final round, she trailed by three strokes, but was one of very few golfers to be able to withstand 25 mph winds, and vaulted to the individual lead. Win won her first individual title by two strokes with a 3-over-par, 69-74-73-216. She is the first Pirate to claim an individual title since teammate Mia Kness (Venetia, Pa.) won the Brown Bear Invitational to complete the 2017 fall season.

Win's 216 breaks Seton Hall's par-71, three-round record by two strokes held previously by Karlie Zabrosky.

Making it a clean sweep for Seton Hall, the Pirates claimed the team title after a third round 16-over-par, 310. Normally, an unattractive score, due to the wind, the Pirates' 310 was the top score of Sunday's third round. The Pirates were able to hold on to the team lead with a 38-over-par, 287-293-310-890.

Despite the wind, the Pirates' three-round score of 890, shatters their par-71 record by eight strokes.

Seton Hall's team title is the 14^th in the history of the program, and the fourth under second-year head coach Natalie Desjardins in only 13 tournaments since taking over the helm.

Junior Maddie Sager (Phoenixville, Pa.) tallied a 7-over-par, 78, in round three, which normally would have dropped a golfer down the leader board, but with the high winds, it kept her in the top-5. Sager finished fourth overall in the tournament, her third career top-5 finish, with a 9-over-par, 75-69-78-222.

Junior Sammie Staudt (Coatesville, Pa.) became a third Pirate to finish in the top-10. She also had a 7-over-par, 78, in the final round, thanks to 13 pars. For the tournament, she notched her third career top-10 finish with an 11-over-par, 72-74-78-224.

Junior Carolina Ronchel Salas (Huelva, Spain) tied for 19^th place overall after a wind-aided 10-over-par, 81, in round three. For the tournament she had a 15-over-par, 71-76-81-228.

Rounding out the Pirates' lineup is sophomore Mia Kness (Venetia, Pa.). She finished the final tournament of the fall season tied for 39^th overall with a 22-over-par, 78-76-81-235.

Competing as an individual, senior Gianna Tomeo (Bradenton, Fla.) completed her first tournament of the fall season with a 43-over-par, 80-85-91-256.
