OSPREY, Fla. – The University of Pennsylvania women's golf team held its sixth-place finish in a tough eight-team field on Sunday at the Harvard Invitational. Due to early inclement weather and travel arrangements, Sunday's final round was reduced to nine holes.
 
Penn shot 144 as a team on Sunday and ended the weekend with a 743 score. That was 19 strokes behind the champion, Lynn University, and fourth among the Ivy teams in the field behind Harvard (730), Princeton (733) and Dartmouth (737).
