WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - The James Madison women's golf team captured its first team title of the 2021-22 season on Monday afternoon, leading wire-to-wire as the Dukes took home first place at the William & Mary Invitational, hosted on the par-72, 6,219-yard River Course at historic Kingsmill Resort.
The Dukes opened the tournament with consecutive rounds of 287 (-1) on Sunday to set a new program record for 36-hole scoring and take a lead heading into the final round, then held the field at bay with a final-round 296 on a difficult setup to best second-place Princeton by one shot on the 15-team leaderboard.
Sophomore Kendall Turner paced the Dukes with her fifth career top-10 finish, finishing at 218 (75-71-72 | +2) to tie for eighth among 79 players. Sophomores Ana Tsiros (71-73-75) and Amelia Williams (68-78-73) checked in just one stroke behind, tied for 12th at 219 (+3).
Junior Kate Owens (77-70-76) and freshman Tatum Walsh (73-73-81) closed out the scoring at 223 (+7) and 227 (+11), respectively.
NOTES FROM THE COURSE
- The Dukes' first two rounds of 287 (-1) are tied for the third-lowest single-round team score in JMU history, while their final score of 870 (+6) is the second-best ever posted at JMU.
- Sophomore Amelia Williams carded a 4-under 68 in her opening round, tying herself and five others for the second-lowest round in program history, just one shot behind her own program record of 67 (-5) at last season's ECU Easter Invitational.
- After shooting a program-best 580 (+4) in the first two rounds of last week's Nittany Lion Invitational, the Dukes set the 36-hole team scoring record for the second event in a row.
- JMU's opening rounds of 287 (-1) make a total of three par-or-better rounds on the season, already tying the school record for a single season.
- Junior Kate Owens posted her 18th career round of par-or-better in the second round (70, -2), putting her just one behind Laura Gomez-Ruiz (2014-18) for the all-time record.

The Dukes will have this weekend off before getting back on the course on Sept. 24-26, when they travel to Furman Golf Club in Greenville, S.C. to compete at the Lady Paladin Invitational.
