WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - The James Madison women's golf team closed out its first tournament of the 2017-18 season on Monday afternoon, taking home seventh place at the William & Mary Invitational, hosted at the par-72, 6,122-yard Kingsmill Resort River Course.
The Dukes, who had entered the final round in seventh as well, fired a 24-over 312 on the final day of competition, just six strokes behind sixth-place Xavier at 926. Penn State held off a charge from second-place UNCW to take home the team title with a final score of 888.
Seniors Gabrielle Weiss and Laura Gomez-Ruiz paced JMU on the final day of competition, posting identical rounds of 3-over 75 on the afternoon.
Weiss shaved six strokes off her second-round score, using her best round of the tournament to climb nine spots into sole possession of 44th at the 67-player event. Gomez-Ruiz continued her steady play, racking up 13 pars and climbing seventh spots into a tie for 13th at 227 (+13).
Senior Maddisen Cox took home a tie for 26th at 231 (+15), while junior Katie Turk (235, +19) and sophomore Morgan Cox closed out the Dukes' scoring (243, +27) in 35th and 53rd, respectively.
Playing as an individual, sophomore Lauren Comegys turned in one of the Dukes' best rounds of the weekend on Monday, posting a 1-over 73 that saw her play her final 11 holes at 1-under. The performance pushed her up into a tie for 26th at 231 (+15) for the weekend. Freshman Ella Woods closed her first collegiate tournament in 62nd at 258.
