The Bison finished in fourth place with a 54-hole total of 953.
Freshman Cristina Canales closed with a 78 to make her Bucknell's low player for the championship. Canales shot 81-77 on Saturday, and her 236 total put her in a tie for 11th place. Canales missed earning All-Patriot League honors by one stroke.

Also for Bucknell on Sunday, freshman Kelsey Yi carded an 81, senior Erin Holmes shot 82 and junior Morgan Hennessy finished with an 89.
The Bison combined for eight birdies on Sunday, led by two apiece from Morrow, Canales and McKelvey.
