Porter Cup Results | Eastern Amateur Results
Ana Menendez, who just finished her senior season for NC State women's golf, recently won the Women's Eastern Amateur Championship.
Menendez (77-72-69-218) stormed to the top of the tournament after a first-round tally of 77. She shot 72 and 69 to force a tie with Monifa Sealy, who plays for Central Florida. Menendez then claimed the championship on a playoff hole.
Lindsay McGetrick (76-73-72-221), who will be a senior this fall, placed seventh in the tournament, just three shots off the lead. Wolfpack sophomore Stephanie Pribonic also competed, placing 18th in the 80-player field.
