AMHERST, MASS. – The Cortland women's golf team finished eighth out of 10 teams at the Jack Leaman Championship, hosted by Amherst College.

Senior Samantha Morley (Poughkeepsie/Arlington) tied for seventh place in a field of 64 golfers with an 80 on the par-74, 5,895-yard layout. Jordan Glatt of Middlebury was the top individual with a 74.

Junior Carly Peters (St. James/Smithtown East) tied for 20th place with an 84 and junior Melissa Rath (East Northport/Northport) placed 34th with an 87.
