Palm Harbor, Fl. – The College of Coastal Georgia women's golf team finished 12^th at the Invite at Innisbrook, hosted by Dalton State, in the greater Tampa area from September 28^th-29^th. At the 5,998-yard course, the shorthanded Mariners recorded a combined +158 for the three-round tournament.

"It wasn't the result we were hoping for for this week," CCGA head women's golf coach Nicole Johns acknowledged. "We had to play four players this tournament and it was tough to get a good showing."
 
Coastal Georgia was led by senior Madelyn Taylor, who ranked 16^th individually with a final score of +14. Taylor's opening round +2 tied for the third-best first round score of any player in the tournament. In her opening round performance Monday morning, Taylor rallied for consecutive birdies on holes 17 and 18. The start of the 2026-2027 schedule has been a showcase for the Baxley-native, who finished third individually at the Mariners' Fall Invitational and third at the Battle at Black Diamond entering Innisbrook. 

Sophomore Brianna Domagala also earned a top 40 finish in Palm Harbor at +28 for the event.
 
The Mariners will next compete at Florida Atlantic's Jupiter Intercollegiate on October 5^th and 6^th at Jonathan's Landing Golf Club.
