KUTZTOWN, Pa. --Â
Brooke Graham (Carlisle, Pa./Boiling Springs) went to the top of the leaderboard and
Eva Moawad (Harrisburg, Pa./Central Dauphin) claimed a spot in the top five, Monday, as the Kutztown University women's golf team currently sits second in the team standings after the first round of the Millersville Fall Invitational at Berkleigh Golf Club.
Graham is coming off back-to-back wins at last week's Elizabethtown Fall Invitational and Dickinson Fall Invitational. The reigning PSAC Athlete of the Week carded a 4-over par 74 to lead Millersville's Sabrina Swope by two shots.
Moawad tied a career-best with a 79 at Dickinson on Sunday and nearly matched that score with an opening round 80 (+8) on the par 72, 5,803-yard course that hosts the PSAC Championship next April. The Harrisburg, Pa., native is in a four-way tie for fourth.

Abby McCaffrey (Leesport, Pa./Schuylkill Valley) shot an 85 (+13) and is tied for 20th in the 50-player field.

Madison Gibson (Cinnaminson, N.J./Cinnaminson) rounded out the Golden Bear lineup with a 96 (+24).
