WASHINGTON – Georgetown University women's golf's Georgia Ruffolo was named the Co-BIG EAST Female Golfer of the Week, as announced by the league on Thursday. The recognition comes after the senior co-captain was the top Hoya finisher at the City of Oaks Collegiate, held in Raleigh, North Carolina and hosted by NC State University. The Hoyas finished eighth of 17 teams with a team score of 76-over 939 (316-298-325) after three rounds of play on the par-72, 6,143-yard course at the Lonnie Poole Golf Club. Ruffolo shares the honor with Seton Hall's Marta Aguilar.
