LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Senior Katharine Marshall led the Creighton women's golf team to a 12th place finish at the Marilyn Smith Sunflower Invitational on Tuesday.
In a testament to its depth, Creighton had a different player lead or tie for the team low each round.
Marshall opened with an 80 before rounds of 77 and 76 to place 44th in the field with a 233. Junior Julia Karmazin was two shots back in 46th place with rounds of 77, 82 and 76 for a 235 total. The duo also own the top two scoring averages on the team this fall, with Karmazin (76.44) owning a narrow edge over Marshall (78.33).
Sophomore Madison Murnan started with a 78 before back-to-back rounds of 81 and a 240 aggregate. Karsen Morrison fired loops of 84, 79 and 81 for a 244 total that put her in a tie for 61st place. Annie Dawson shot a 76 in the opening round, followed by an 80 and final round 89 to tie for 64th place.
Delaware's Rhianna Gooneratne (70-71-70=211) earned medalist honors by two shots over Kansas' Ebba Nordstedt (72-72-69=213). Tournament host Kansas (276-289-293=858) won the tournament by 23 shots over Delaware (294-289-298=881).
Lawrence Country Club played to 6,169 yards on its Par 71 layout. The event featured 71 players and 14 teams, with Creighton (311-317-314=942) finishing in 12th place and ahead of Midwest rivals Omaha (304-322-325=951) and Northern Iowa (319-319-339=977).
Creighton is back in action next Monday and Tuesday with its lone home meet of the fall, the Big O Classic, hosted at Oak Hills Country Club.
