BETHLEHEM, Pa. – The Lehigh women's golf team heads to Annapolis, Md., for its second tournament of the fall season. The Mountain Hawks will play in the two-day, 36-hole Navy Fall Invitational, beginning Saturday at the Naval Academy Golf Club. Sixteen teams will play 18 holes both Saturday and Sunday on the 6,084, par 72 course.
 
Lehigh opened its fall season with a third place showing at the Hornet Classic at the Creek, Sept. 19-20 in Rehoboth Beach, Del. The Mountain Hawks set a program record with an opening round 290 and then tied a program record with a final 54-hole total of 910.
 
First-year Evelyn Wong tied for first place at 219 (71-74-74) but lost out on medalist honors as part of a five-way playoff. Sophomore Madison Pineda and first-year Yuki Zhu also posted top-15 finishes.
 
Participating teams at the Navy Fall Invitational include Bryant, Bucknell, The Citadel, Delaware State, FDU, Holy Cross, Howard, La Salle, Lehigh, LIU, Monmouth, Mount St. Mary's, Navy, Quinnipiac, Sacred Heart and William & Mary.
 
Last year, Lehigh finished eighth out of 13 teams at the Navy Fall Invitational. Pineda led the way, tying for fifth.
 
This weekend's lineup will feature Wong, Pineda and Zhu plus senior Hannah Foster and sophomore Sophie Chang. Senior Iris Shin and junior Meghna Grover will compete as individuals.
 
Live scoring will be available on GolfStat.com.
