Blue Golf Finishes Second at Liberty League Championship; Sets 36-Hole Program Record

REXFORD, N.Y. - Wellesley College golf set a 36-hole program record and took second place by a single stroke to No. 17 New York University on a day full of twists and turns at the Liberty League Women's Golf Championship at the Par 72 - 5688 Yards Edison Club.

Senior Kate MacVicar (Tuscaloosa, Ala.) and sophomore Elizabeth Kim (Riverside, Calif.) both birdied the 17th hole to keep Wellesley's championship aspirations alive but ultimately the experience of NYU helped the Violets edge out an eighth Liberty League title. Kim finished the tournament as the runner-up with a 151 (75-76) for the Blue, followed narrowly behind by K. MacVicar, who shot a 152 (75-77) to take third. Both Kim and K. MacVicar received All-Liberty League First Team honors. 

The Blue shattered its record for the program's lowest team 36-hole score with a 612 (304-308), falling just shy of NYU's 611 (310-301). William Smith (679), Union (712), and St. Lawrence (748) rounded out the team competition. First year Tiya Chowdary (Belle Mead, N.J.) of NYU hit five birdies on Sunday to win the individual competition with a 147 (78-69). 

Senior Caroline MacVicar (Tuscaloosa, Ala.) had a pair of birdies and carded a 154 (77-77) to tie for sixth while junior Emma Lim (Skillman, N.J.) hit birdies on three occasions tie for ninth with a 155 (77-78). C. MacVicar and Lim were each named to the All-Liberty League Second Team.

Rounding out Wellesley's team was junior Marilyn Fang (Beijing, China), who finished 15th overall with a 163 (77-86).
