WINTER SPRINGS, Fla. – The West Florida women’s golf team finished the final round at the 37th Annual Peggy Kirk Bell Invitational hosted by Rollins on Tuesday, and the Argonauts (328-333-335 - 996) placed 11th at 132-over par.  Three-time defending national champion and No. 1 ranked Nova Southeastern (308-310-310 - 928) took the team title, shooting 64-over par.

Nova Southeastern was one of 11 teams in the tournament receiving votes in the most recent National Golf Coaches Association (NGCA) national poll, including seven of the top 10 ranked teams.  No. 3 Florida Southern (310-303-318 - 931) placed second, just three strokes behind NSU.  No. 2 St. Edward’s (314-304-315) placed third, meaning the top three ranked teams in the country also placed in the top three at the tournament.

Freshman Camila Sevillano (Cali, Colombia/La Arboleda) was the Argonauts’ top finisher, placing tied for 21st at 21-over par (80-77-80 - 237).  Senior Jenny Lines (Birmingham, Ala./Spring Hill) was six strokes back of Sevillano, finishing tied for 37th at 27-over (79-81-83 - 243).  Freshman Aimee Paterson (Sherfield on Loddon, England/Queen Mary's) and junior Agustina Cocha (Salta, Argentina/Colegio Santa Maria) finished 49th and 60th, respectively.  Paterson (87-79-84 - 250) shot 34-over par for the tournament, and Cocha (82-96-88 - 266) was 50-over.

Nova Southeastern had the top two individual finishers, Abbey Gittings (76-73-73 - 222) and Daniela Ortiz (75-75-74 - 224).  Florida Southern’s Megan Kiley (78-72-76 - 226) and Grand Valley State’s Sarah Hoffman (74-72-76 - 226) tied for third.
