STATE COLLEGE, PA. – Junior Lizzie Win (Sylvania, Ohio) fired a second consecutive 2-under-par, 70, in the final round, which included a hole-in-one, to guide the Seton Hall women's golf team to a fourth place team finish at the Nittany Lion Invitational on Sunday.
Win had a hole-in-one on the par-3, fourth hole, and birdies on holes No. 12 and No. 14, in route to her second straight sub-par round. For the tournament, she placed sixth among 92 individual golfers with an even-par, 76-70-70-216. Win's hole-in-one is the first ever during tournament play for a Seton Hall women's golfer.
Win's third round, 70, is her fifth career sub-par round, which ties teammate Maddie Sager (Phoenixville, Pa.) for the most in Seton Hall history. Furthermore, her 216 ties former Pirate great Ali Kruse for the lowest three-round, par-72 score ever for a Pirate. It's Win's ninth career top-10 finish.
A day after tying Seton Hall's par-72, single-round record, the Pirates, as a team, shot one stroke better to set the record. The Pirates shot a 2-over-par, 290, in round three to set the mark. For the tournament, The Hall shot a 21-over-par, 304-291-290-885, and finished the highly-competitive event in fourth place. Penn State and Washington tied for the team title at even-par, while Rutgers place third at 15-over-par.
Sophomore Mia Kness (Venetia, Pa.) fired a 2-over-par, 74, in the final round to finish at 8-over-par for the tournament with a 77-73-74-224. Junior Carolina Ronchel Salas (Huelva, Spain) shot one stroke better on Sunday, a 1-over-par, 73, to finish the two-day event at 10-over-par with a 78-75-73-226.
After a rough first round, freshman Sarah Fouratt (Santa Maria, Calif.) turned in her second straight stellar performance with another 1-over-par, 73. For the tournament, she finished with a 12-over-par, 82-73-73-228.
Junior Sammie Staudt (Coatesville, Pa.) rounded out the Pirates' scoring with a 10-over-par, 82, on Sunday. She finished the season-opening event with a 16-over-par, 73-77-82-232.
