KESWICK, Va. – The Bucknell women's golf team wrapped up a record-breaking fall season with a seventh-place finish out of nine teams at the inaugural Keswick Cup hosted by Virginia on Monday at the par-72 Keswick Golf Club.
Bucknell fired a 613 for the 36-hole tournament, led by Sophia Bardunias who tied for 20th at 6-over-par. Joelle Johnson and Nicole Yun were right behind Bardunias in a tie for 22nd at 7-over-par.
The Bison faced off against two top-25 teams in the country and three individual golfers ranked in the top-10 according to Scoreboard Clipped. No. 4 Virginia won its home tournament by a landslide at 25-under-par, 24 strokes ahead of No. 23 Virginia Tech. Virginia's Miranda Lu won the tournament at 9-under par, one stroke ahead of teammate Jaclyn LaHa. LaHa is currently the No. 2 golfer in the nation.
Bardunias went 73-77 for her two rounds with four birdies in each round. In her opening round, she was 3-over-par through eight holes before finishing 2-under-par over the final 10 holes to get back to 1-over-par. Her 77 in the second round of play featured four more birdies including three on the back nine holes.
Yun carded 74-77 for the tournament with four birdies on the day. She was 2-under back on the back nine holes in her opening round and made two more birdies in the second round.
Johnson ended a terrific fall season with 76-75 on her scorecard. The sophomore did not make a double-bogey the entire tournament and made two birdies in the second round.
Mattea Issa took 45th with 81-80 in her two rounds. The freshman finished off a strong debut season with three birdies on the day. Fellow freshman Rayne Ripperger carded 84-80 with two birdies in the second round to finish in 47th.
Bucknell will return to action in February for the beginning of the spring season. The Bison will host the Patriot League Championships at the Bucknell Golf Club in April. Â
