ANNAPOLIS, MD -- The Maryland women's golf team topped Navy, 4.5-3-5, in match play Saturday at the U.S. Naval Academy Golf Club in Annapolis.

Junior Daniela Burgos Ortega tied the Mids' Megan Kirkpatrick, then senior Panassaya Somchit was edged by Keira Howard, 2 & 1. Sophmore Julia Garcia put the Terps on the verge of victory when she earned a 3&2 win over Vivian Cressman. Freshman Chananyu Chowiwattana fell to Sue Lee, 3&2 as the Mids made a rally. 

Senior Nicha Kanpai was edged by Emma Tang, 3 & 1, but freshman Anna Pillard held off Bridget Hoang to seal the win for the Terrapins.
