"I am very proud of the team's efforts this weekend," said fifth-year head coach Nadia Ste-Marie. "We were tied for second after the first round and it was great to be in contention. I'm excited to see the progress we have made in such a short time, and I look forward to the remainder of the fall season."

Eight of Navy's nine players broke 80 in at least one round in the team's first competition of the season.

Navy placed ahead of the three other Patriot League programs at the invitational. Lehigh was sixth (637), Bucknell was ninth (646) and Holy Cross placed 15th (705).

Navy will return to action next Sunday and Monday at the Tignanelli Towson Invitational.
