NEW YORK – Seton Hall sophomore Mia Kness (Venetia, Pa.) was named BIG EAST Women's Golfer of the Week on Thursday.
Kness became only the second golfer in Seton Hall women's golf history to win two individual tournament titles, firing a 1-over-par, 73, in the final round to cement her victory and lead the Pirates to the team title of the 2019 William & Mary Intercollegiate on Tuesday. Kness joins former Pirate Erin McClure as the only Pirates to win two individual tournament titles in their careers. Kness' other title came at the 2017 Brown Bear Invitational.
Kness used 13 pars to power her final round, and birdied two of the final three holes. For the tournament, she finished at 2-over-par with a 71-74-73-218, winning the event by six strokes over High Point's Sarah Kahn.
Her tournament began with a 1-under-par, 71, in the first round, the second sub-par round of her career.
Kness and the rest of the Pirates will return to tournament action for three rounds of golf, March 30-April 1, at the Edisto Island Invitational in South Carolina.
