DELMAR, N.Y. – In only her third collegiate tournament, freshman Marta Aguilar (Casaras Malaga, Spain) claimed the individual co-championship and lifted the Seton Hall women's golf team to the team title at the UAlbany Great Danes Invitational on Sunday.

Aguliar started the day three strokes behind a pair of individual leaders, but had two birdies, 10 pars and an eagle on the par-5, No. 9 hole, to fuel a 1-over-par, 71, in the final round. Her remarkable second-round performance enabled her tie Boston University's Christy Chen for the individual championship.

It's The Hall's first team victory since taking home the championship at the St. John's Invitational on April 11, 2023.

Senior Ana Sarrias Pro (Cadiz, Spain) was even-par on the back nine to power a 4-over-par, 74, in round two. She collected her fourth career top-10 finish by tying for eighth place with an 11-over-par, 77-74-151.
