SANTA CRUZ, Calif. - Kate Keith of the Claremont-Mudd-Scripps women's golf team was the only player to score under par (-3), taking individual medalist honors by four strokes, as the Athenas came in second place out of 13 teams at the Hollins Cup hosted by UC Santa Cruz on Monday and Tuesday.

Defending national champion Emory won the team title at +19, with the Athenas in second place at +29 and WashU coming in third place, 10 shots behind CMS, at +39. 

Keith shot +1 in Monday's opening round, and then had a -4 on Tuesday, which was the only round in the red from any competitor in the field on either day. Amanda Zheng of Emory shot even par on Tuesday, and Esther Jung of Emory shot even par on Monday, along with Morgan Mussatt of Randolph Macon and Jessy Young of WashU. 

Keith opened up her second round on Tuesday with a birdie, and then had three straight birdies at the turn on holes 9-11. She suffered her only blemish on Tuesday with a bogey on No. 14, but finished off with a birdie on the par-3 18th to get back to -4 on the day and finish off her individual win. 

Alisa Ching was also in the top 10 for the Athenas (out of 65 golfers), in a tie for seventh place overall at +8. Charlene Woo was tied for 14th at +11, with Christine Yu adding a 20th place finish. 

CMS will be back in action next week when it travels to the Division III Pre-Nationals in Williamsburg, Virginia, the site of the NCAA Division III Championships in the spring.
