Women's Golf Finishes Play at Juli Inkster at Meadow Club Invitational

FAIRFAX, Calif.– Junior Leigha Devine produced a top-20 individual result as Rutgers women's golf finished play at the 2022 Juli Inkster at Meadow Club Invitational on Tuesday in Fairfax, California. Devine finished with a two-over-par 218 (74-70-74) to lead the Scarlet Knights during the two-day tournament.

RU finished 12th in the loaded field with its 906 (311-297-298). No. 9 San Jose State captured the team title with its 10-under-par 854 (281-283-290), followed by No. 1 Standord (-9) and No. 44 Washington (+6). Washington's Camille Boyd won individual honors with her 1-under-par 202 (67-70-65).

"We did a better job out on the course today," said head coach Kari Williams. "I saw the team roll in a lot of good putts. It was nice to see Maeve put together a solid round and score well out there. Rikke made a good comeback after a string of bogies early in her round. Leigha battled to hold her round together and finished ahead of a few top-ranked players. This was our toughest field of the year and it was good for us to have this challenge as we head towards the final events of our season."

Devine produced four birdies during her final round to finish tied for 16th in the 74-player field. Devine carded a two-under-par 70 in the second round on Monday during her impressive tournament.

Senior captain Maeve Rossi moved up eight spots on the leaderboard with her one-over-par 73 on Tuesday, highlighted by birdies on holes nine, 10 and 13.

"I was able to give myself good looks at birdie today that I took advantage of.," Rossi said. "I putted well and that gave me confidence on the course. Facing these top teams and ranked players was a fun test for us, especially playing on such a challenging course. As a team, we learned a lot playing out here this week."

Sophomore Rikke Nordvik, rookie Lucrezia Rossettin and junior Nicole Ewing rounded out the team scorecard. Nordvik fired off a two-over-par 74 during Tuesday's final round.

Rutgers returns to action March 14-15 at the Jackrabbit Invite in Boulder City, Nevada.
