SOUTHERN PINES, N.C. - The Richmond women's golf team finished 14th at the Ross Resorts Invitational, the Spiders' last tournament of the fall season.
The Spiders finished the tournament with a 982, four strokes behind Bucknell and three strokes ahead of CAA rival Xavier, which finished 14th at 985.
"We know that we still have a lot of work to do if we are going to achieve the goals that we set out to achieve," Richmond head coach Leighann Albaugh said. "We're looking forward to working on our weaknesses in the off-season."
Richmond junior Rosario Germino tied for 37th at 242 after rounds of 85, 76 and 81. Sophomore Anne Sprick finished 46th at 245 (85-77-83) and sophomore Lauren Folgosa tied for 47th at 246 (86-82-78).
Freshman Jillian Fraccola tied for 64th at 252 (83-84-85) and senior Alex Latimer finished 66th at 253 (85-85-83). Freshman Christina Gray tied for 74th (93-81-85=259) playing as an individual.
The Spiders played in five tournaments this fall and posted two top-10 finishes, including a fourth-place finish at the Colonial Intercollegiate.
"The fall season was all about getting our feet wet, getting the freshmen in the mix and forming as a group," Albaugh said. "We were getting used to each other and getting more tournament play experience because it is such a young team. They got a lot more experience, playing under pressure, such as Anne being in contention to win a tournament."
Richmond returns to action at the Cuthbert Cup on Feb. 24-26 at in Kiawah Island, S.C.
