ONTARIO – Virginia senior golfer Jaclyn LaHa followed a stellar opening day with a final-round 1-over 73 to win the Canadian Collegiate Invitational at Beacon Hall Golf Course on Tuesday (Sept. 22). The Cavaliers combined for a score of 1-over 865 to win the tournament as four individuals landed in the top-four.

Zoe Cusack combined for a score of 3-under 213 to place third on the individual leaderboard while Elsie MacCleery tied for fourth with a 54-hole score of 1-under 215. As top-five finishers, Cusack and MacCleery receive automatic exemptions into the 2027 Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship, presented by BDO.
Mira Berglund tied for 19th overall with a 54-hole score of 10-over 226 while Lily Reitter tied for 29th at 14-over 230. Competing as an individual, Kiera Bartholomew tied for 26th at 13-over 229.
