FLEETWOOD, Pa. --Â
Brooke Graham (Carlisle, Pa./Boiling Springs) claimed her fourth medalist honor of the fall and the Kutztown University women's golf team was victorious for the fifth time in six outings this season as the Golden Bears concluded their fall season with the Kutztown Fall Invitational at Moselem Springs Golf Club, Monday.
KU continued its torrid run to kick off the 2026-27 season.
Glen McCartney's squad won its second straight tournament and finished no worse than second in six tournaments this fall.
Graham was the only golfer to break into the 70s during Sunday's dreary first round and tied for the low round on a blustery Monday with an 11-over 81. The senior from Carlisle, Pa., held off teammate
Eva Moawad (Harrisburg, Pa./Central Dauphin) in a 1-2 finish for the Golden Bears. Graham converted a birdie putt on the 325-yard, par 4 first and had seven pars over her final 18 holes. She finished the tournament with a 159 (78-81).
Moawad led the Maroon and Gold with three birdies --all on the front nine-- and matched Graham's final round 81. The Harrisburg, Pa., native's birdies came at No. 1, No. 5, a 145-yard par 3, and No. 7, a 420-yard par 5. Moawad earned her second runner-up finish of the fall and was just four shots off the winning total with a 163 (82-81).
Sophomore
Livia Andov (Pekanbaru, Indonesia/) gave KU three golfers in the top five following a second round 87 on the par 70, 5,680-yard course. She totaled five pars and shot 170 for the tournament (83-87).
Abby McCaffrey (Leesport, Pa./Schuylkill Valley) gained a pair of spots on the leaderboard to place seventh with a 36-hole total of 176 (90-86). The Schuylkill Valley High School graduate and Berks County native had birdies at the par 4 second and par 5 seventh to go along with three pars, Monday.
Brooke Prindiville (Hawthorn Woods, Ill./Lake Zurich) trimmed nine shots off her first round score to card a final round 94. She birdied No. 7 and had five pars to finish at 197 overall (103-94).
Madison Gibson (Cinnaminson, N.J./Cinnaminson) and
Alana Cristino (Lancaster, Pa./Manheim Township) were individual entries for the Golden Bears. Gibson finished 14th in the 21-player field with a 193 (92-101), while Cristino was 17th at 200 (99-101).
Kutztown outpaced runner-up Millersville by 19 shots with a two-day total of 668 (333-335). The Marauders shot 687 for the tourney (342-345) and Shepherd was third at 747 (364-383).
