Reggie Parker of Ekwanok Country Club won her 8th Vermont senior women’s title by claiming the championship held this week at Country Club of Barre.

Parker shot 77-84 for a total 161, giving her an impressive 6-stroke victory over defending champion Jeanne Morrissey of Williston Golf Club. Morrissey clinched second place and the runner-up trophy after defeating Mary Brush of Burlington Country Club and Patti Haas of Killington Golf Club in a sudden death playoff.

Sandra Towns of Orleans Country Club won the low net trophy with a net total of 136, four strokes better than Nancy Gorham Lasante of Bellows Falls, Ethelyn Bartlett of Cedar Knoll, and Phyllis Simon of Williston.
