The Anderson University women's golf team captured the Manchester Fall Invitational crown on Sunday in Huntington.

Anderson University's 'A' Team posted a team score 346 (+62). The Ravens tied with Ohio Wesleyan University in the team standings, but the meet champion was determined by the tiebreaker of the fifth golfer; Anderson fielded a fifth golfer and Ohio Wesleyan did not. Anderson earned its first tournament title since winning the Hanover Invitational in September, 2006.

The Anderson 'B' Team took sixth with a team score of 412 (+128).

Addy Gick locked up second place in her collegiate debut to earn all-tournament honors. She carded a round of 81 on the par-71 layout at Maple Grove Golf Course.

COACH MORGAN DOUGLASS'S COMMENTS

I'm so proud of the girls! It was a beautiful day to get out and golf and what better way to start out the season than with a win? I'm pumped for what's next!

ADDY GICK'S COMMENTS

I tried going in with a positive attitude. Since it [was] my birthday, I was just trying to go out there, have fun and not worry about it. I actually didn't have any nerves, even though I'm always nervous [at meets]. I went out there, had fun and tried to play well.
