The top 32 players advanced to match play, which will begin Wednesday. Costello topped the Smith sisters of Westford for medalist honors.

A third Smith, Maddie, also easily qualified for match play. Carys Fennessy of Youth on Course/Mass Golf (72-77) was fourth, and tying for fifth were Allison Paik of The Cape Club of Sharon (73-77-150) and Mackenzie Whitney of Oak Hill CC (75-75-150).
