QUEENS, N.Y. - With the 2015 spring season less than two months away, Red Storm Sports had the opportunity to sit down with senior Cameron Lambertson to take an inside look into the mind of one of St. John's women's golf's graduating seniors.
Lambertson, a native of Northport, N.Y., has been a member of the Red Storm since her freshman year and has accumulated a career-stroke average of 83.35 through 18 events. This past fall, Lambertson shot a career-best with a three-round total of 236 (79-78-79), rounding out the fall season with a tie for 27th at the Princeton Invitational (Oct. 18-19). The senior's 18-hole career-best came as a sophomore, carding a 76 (+5) in the final round of the C&F Bank Intercollegiate (March 18-19). Off the course, Lambertson has been named to the BIG EAST All-Academic Team in each of her first three seasons with the Red Storm.
