HARDEEVILLE, S.C. – Freshman Marta Aguilar (Casares Malaga, Spain) shot an even-par, 72, in the final round of the BIG EAST Championship and was named to the All-Tournament Team as the Seton Hall women's golf team wrapped up play on Monday.

Aguilar started her final round on fire, collecting birdies on three of her first five holes. The start vaulted her back to the top of the individual leaderboard. After a double-bogey on hole No. 8 and a bogey on No. 9, Aguliar steadied herself and was even on the back nine. In all, she had four birdies on Monday to fuel an even-par, 72. For the tournament, she was 4-over-par with a 71-77-72-220.

While Aguilar did nothing on Monday to lose the tournament, Xavier's Emma Welch shot a 4-under-par, 68, to become the first player to win the BIG EAST Championship in back-to-back years.

For her efforts this week, Aguilar was named to the BIG EAST All-Tournament Team. She's the first Seton Hall women's golfer to earn All-Tournament since Maddie Sager during the 2021 event. Aguilar is also only the second Seton Hall freshman to earn the impressive distinction.
