Morrison, Women’s Golf Take Home First Place at the FPU Fall Invitational

KEENE, N.H. (September 4, 2016) – Junior captain Camden Morrison (Millis, Mass.) led the entire field with a 69 (-3) as the Franklin Pierce University women's golf team opened the 2016 campaign with a first place finish at the annual FPU Fall Invitational Sunday at the Bretwood Golf Course in Keene, N.H.

Southern New Hampshire (340 +52), Merrimack (341 +53) and Assumption (353 +65) rounded out the final three spots. This is the third straight season the Raven women have taken the top spot in their home invitational.

Sophomore Sarah Daley (Beverly, Mass.) tallied an 82 (+10) which was good enough for a seventh place finish. Teammates Taylor Schmidt (West Springfield, Mass.), Zoe Yamamoto (Honolulu, Hawaii) and newcomer Rosa Jones (Mastic, N.Y.) all tied for 10th place with scores of 84 that were (+12) over par.
