As a freshman for the Crusaders last season, Davy set a school record with an 18-hole round of 76 as well as a 36-hole tournament record at 154.  She posted a pair of top-10 finishes and finished her rookie campaign with an 83.8 stroke average.

The South Shore Championship will take place Thursday -Saturday, June 30-July 2.  Davy will be the first Crusader in school history to compete in an event on a professional tour.
