Golfers Tee Off on Yale, Princeton at Brookline

While the rest of the Harvard golf team was taking care of business with Princeton and Yale, sophomore Leslie Greis--a reserve player on the men's varsity--put on a show of her own, carding an 85 to place third in the women's individual Massachusetts Intercollegiate tournament at Stowe.

Greis, a former Massachusetts girls' high school champion, faltered on the front nine in rainy, misty conditions, but she charged back over the closing nine with a 40.

The strong finish tied Greis with Mount Holyoke's Jan van Muching for the third spot after regulation play, two strokes behind the leaders, Mount Holyoke's Ann Locke and Amherst's Monica Romano.

Locke forged into the victor's circle by parring the third hole of the playoff to edge out Romano.

Greis, the first woman ever to compete on a men's varsity golf team at Harvard, turned in a 98 in the Crimson's victory over MIT, Bates and Siena on Tuesday.
