MILFORD, Conn. - Led by career-best performances from sisters Madison and Victoria Takai, the Boston University women's golf team finished off a dominating performance at the season-opening SHU Fall Classic on Tuesday, winning the team title by 52 strokes at Great River Golf Club.
Madison Takai claimed her first collegiate title with a 3-over 219 (72-70-77) while Victoria finished runner-up with a 7-over 223 (74-73-76). The Terriers took up the top four spots on the leaderboard as senior Christy Chen was third at plus-9 (73-73-79--225) and sophomore Amy Han took fourth at plus-11 (78-72-77--227).
BU posted an 893 over the three rounds for a score of plus-29. Mount St. Mary's was runner-up in the eight-team field with a score of 945 (+81). Merrimack (+91) and host Sacred Heart (+104) rounded out the top four. BU had the low score in all three rounds of the tournament
Junior Annika Manjunath tied for 16th in the tournament at plus-23 (77-80-82--239) while senior Meiqi Gao (77-82-81--240) and sophomore Hibiki Adachi (79-80-82--241) placed 18th and 19th, respectively.
Victoria Takai, who had the second-lowest round in the field on Tuesday with a 76, shot 4-under on par 5s over the course of the tournament.
