From the Clubhouse
"We just finished up our first official event of the spring and I am really proud of the team," said Head Coach Erin Fahey. "The afternoon round yesterday was uncharacteristic of us, but the team rallied today and came back strong to move up 2 spots and secure the 4th place finish.
I want to thank Wigwam Golf Resort for having us out to compete. This is our second year hosting the BGSU Women's Intercollegiate out there and they have become a great partner to work with.
Huge shoutout to Sammie Dolce for firing a 69 in the third round to secure a 4th place finish individually and big shoutout to Macie Elzinga who finished in the top 10 individually."

The Falcons will be next in action on Feb. 21-23 in Rio Verde, Ariz., for Western Michigan's Rio Verde Collegiate Invitational.
