PISCATAWAY, N.J. - Freshman Kortnie Maxoutopoulis (Pleasanton, Calif.) carded a 150 (75-75) to win the 19-team Rutgers Invitational, played Friday and Saturday at the Rutgers University Golf Course. The Scarlet Knights, who were the leaders in the clubhouse after day one, carded a 618 to place second behind tournament champion Boston College.
"I'm really proud of the team's focus the entire weekend," said Director of Golf Maura Waters-Ballard. "Kortnie played tremendous under very challenging conditions and that was great to see."
Junior Brittany Weddell (Buzzards Bay, Mass.) also performed very well for the Scarlet Knights, finishing tied for second in the 97-player field with a 152 (75-77). She was even in par three scoring to lead the tournament, while also producing 25 pars.
Maxoutopoulis was plus one in par five scoring and registered 25 pars as well. The victory marked her second tournament crown in just three collegiate events.
