SHAWNEE, Pa.  – After holding a seven shot lead heading into the final day of the Landmark Conference Championship, the Catholic women's golf team was poised to take home the fifth conference championship in program history on Sunday. The Cardinals continued their strong play during round two and shot four strokes lower on the day to put up a team score of 331 to finish at 666 for the two days. Catholic finished 12 strokes higher than Susquehanna in second, and captured their fourth consecutive Landmark Championship, the most titles ever won in a row by a program. 

The Cardinals finished with three players in the top 10 and two in the top five, led by Brooke Smith, who has made a career of being among the conference's best players at the championship.

Wright opened the front nine strong with back-to-back pars and also did well on holes 8-9 with a birdie and a par. She collected four more pars and a birdie on the 488-yard par five on 11 to finish alone in fifth place. Coming in right behind her in a tie for sixth was Gabi Courtney who matched her opening round score with an 83 once again.
