BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The Lehigh women's golf team heads to Annapolis, Maryland for its final tune-up before the Patriot League Championship as the Mountain Hawks will play in the four-team Navy Spring Tournament beginning Saturday at the Naval Academy Golf Club.
The 36-hole tournament features 18 holes of play both Saturday and Sunday beginning at 9:30 a.m. The four-team field consists of Bucknell, Georgetown, Lehigh and Navy as those squads will tackle the 6,085-yard, par-72 Naval Academy Golf Club.
Lehigh is coming off a 14th place team finish at the Kingsmill Intercollegiate, hosted by William & Mary March 28-29 in Williamsburg, Va. Freshman Reagan Jahn led the way for the Mountain Hawks, finishing in 17th place. Jahn has paced the Mountain Hawks in both spring tournaments. She tied for 31st to lead Lehigh to a ninth place finish at the Lady EagleCat Invitational over spring break in Florida.
Senior Nicole Feierberg returned to action at the Kingsmill Intercollegiate and was Lehigh's second highest finisher. Junior Elizabeth McGarrigle and freshman Aileen Jeong tied for Lehigh's third lowest score in Virginia, while sophomores Megan Moylan and Casey Farmer are looking to fine tune their games leading into the Patriot League Championship.
Last year, Lehigh finished fourth out of 15 teams at Navy's Chesapeake Bay Fall Invitational. Moylan shot 236 over 54 holes to tie for ninth place. The Naval Academy Golf Club also hosted the 2015 Patriot League Championship, where Lehigh finished second out of six teams. Feierberg finished fourth overall to earn All-Patriot League honors, while Moylan shot 75 in the final round to post the low round of the championship for the Mountain Hawks.
Following the Navy Spring Tournament, Lehigh will shift focus to the Patriot League Championship, April 23-24 at the Bucknell Golf Course in Lewisburg, Pa. Bucknell was the site where Lehigh won the inaugural Patriot League Championship in 2013.
