Both freshmen shot identical one-over-par 37s on the front nine, followed by back-nine 39s to finish the day. Fellow frosh Emma Lister (Manchester, England) finished one shot behind the pair at 77 (+5). Desjardins' final-round 85 at the Princeton Invitational on Sept. 25 was her previous best as a Blackbird. Brown's previous low-round as a Blackbird was 87, which she shot in both rounds of the Princeton tournament. As a team, the Blackbirds finished in a tie for 8th with fellow Northeast Conference member St. Francis (Pa.) at 320. The College of William & Mary took home the team title, topping Harvard University by two strokes at 299 (+11). Saturday's round was cancelled due to rain. The event, which was previously scheduled for 36 holes, was shortened to 18. The women’s golf team continues its season Oct. 14-15 at the Rutgers Invitational in Piscataway, N.J.
