LEWISBURG, PA. - The Seton Hall women's golf team shot a final round 311 at the 2012 Bucknell Invitational, but had to settle for a second place tie as it was edged by Boston University by one stroke for the team title.

Freshman Megan Tenhundfeld (Loveland, Ohio) and sophomore Ali Kruse (Overland Park, Kan.), both of which performed masterfully in yesterday's second round, struggled on Sunday, posting scores of 84 and 79 respectively. 

For the tournament, the Pirates fired a 91-over-par, 322-298-311-931.  Seton Hall tied Rutgers for second place.  The Scarlet Knights were tremendously consistent throughout the three-round event, shooting a 310-310, but it was one extra stroke, a 311 in round three, that kept them out of a first place tie-breaker situation.

Boston University won the event, advancing from a fourth place position following round two with a third-round 309.

The Pirates' achilles heel in this tournament was their 42-over-par, 322, in the first round.  If the result was determined on the teams' second and third round scores alone, Seton Hall would have won by four strokes.

Despite her poor third round, Tenhundfeld still completed her first collegiate tournament with a top-10 finish.  The Ohio native impressively finished play in eighth place with a 20-over-par, 75-71-84-230.

Boston University completed the sweep at the Bucknell Invitational as Kristyna Pavlickova, tied with Tenhundfeld at the start of the day, took home the individual title with a 10-over-par, 75-71-74-220.

Kruse picked up her second career top-10 finish, tying for 10^th place overall with a 22-over-par, 80-73-79-232.

Junior Hannah Basalone (Brea, Calif.) continued to improve as the tournament progressed.  She finishes tied for 13^th place overall following her team-best 4-over-par, 74, in round three.  For the two-day event, Basalone was 23-over-par with an 83-76-74-233.

Sophomore Erin McClure (Tucson, Ariz.) tallied her best round of the tournament with a 78 in round three to finish tied for 28^th overall with a 31-over-par, 84-79-78-241.

Freshman Karlie Zabrosky (Erie, Pa) completed her first collegiate tournament tied for 37^th place with a 34-over-par, 86-78-80-244.

The most consistent performer of the weekend for the Pirates was Christina Cantú (Houston, Texas), but the junior was competing as an independent.  Independent golfers don't have their scores counted towards the team totals.  Cantũ tied for second place among 80 individual golfers with an 18-over-par, 75-76-77-228.  Her second place tie is the fourth top-10 finish and second top-five finish of her impressive career.

Sophomore McKenzie Cutter (Waldorf, Md.), slowed by injury, also competed as an independent and tied for 37^th place overall with a 24-over-par, 76-84-84-244.

Seton Hall will return to the links next week as it will head to nearby East Meadow, N.Y. for the St. John's Intercollegiate on Monday, Sept. 17.
