Walton, Siminoff Earn All-Ivy Women's Golf Honors
April 25, 2019 | Women's Golf
Junior Maya Walton and freshman Sophie Siminoff each finished in the top 10 at last weekend's Ivy League Championship, and each has been named to the 2019 All-Ivy League teams.
Walton tied for fifth overall at the Ivy tournament and earned first-team honors for the second consecutive year after being named to the second team as a freshman. She is the eighth Tiger to earn at least three All-Ivy recognitions and would become the fourth player to earn four if she makes the All-Ivy team again next year.
The Ivy finish concluded a season that saw Walton lead Princeton in six of the team's seven stroke-play events between the fall and the spring, including winning the Towson Invitational in the fall and posting four additional top-10 finishes, at the ODU Fall Invite, the Brown Invitational, the Harvard Invitational and the Ivy tournament.
Siminoff turned in top-10 finishes in each of the team's final two stroke-play events, finishing tied for sixth at the Harvard Inviational before the top-10 finish at the Ivy tournament.
