BETHLEHEM, Pa. - The Lafayette golf team earned a fourth place finish at the Lehigh Invitational played at Saucon Valley Country Club. The two-day tournament was a 36-hole event played on the 6,005 yard par-72 Grace Course.

As a team Lafayette followed Saturday's score of 301 with a 306 on Sunday. The Leopards 607 31-over placed the team one stroke behind Colgate and Siena (606, +30) and tournament winner Seton Hall (296, 290, 586) which finished 10-over par. The Pirates Brandon Park earned medalist honors, shooting an even-par 144.

Carter Rufe led Lafayette, finishing in a tie for fifth overall after his second round 77. The senior closed round one with a 71, Saturday's only score under par, for a total of 148. His four over par tied him with Rutgers Jonathan Rensa and led all Patriot League individuals.

Rufe's classmate Rob Robertson carded an eight-over 152 for a 13th place tie. Freshman Phil Rosengarden finished right behind Robertson in a tie for 17th, after recording scores of 75 and 78.

Mike Zausmer closed out the Maroon and White's scoring, registering a 74 on Sunday to follow up his first-day 81. He finished the tournament at plus-11 in 24th place.

Lafayette returns to the course in the Spring as this weekend's event concluded the Fall schedule.
