OTTAWA LAKE, Mich. – The Bowling Green women's golf team took home the match play Battle of I-75 with Toledo on Saturday afternoon, 5-4. The Match Play was supposed to be contested at Toledo's Ottawa Park Golf Course but was moved to the Legacy Golf Club due to flooding. The Legacy Golf Club is a par-72, 5,900-yard course in Ottawa Lake, Mich.
 
Ava O'Sullivan clinched the narrow victory over Toledo's Macy Hanus with a bogey on hole No. 17. The Falcons won three of the final three matches to overcome and early 3-2 Toledo lead. Emily Pantig-Nystrom won Match No. 8, also on hole No. 17, over Toledo's Kaitlyn Natividad to tie the match and set up O'Sullivan for the winner.
 
The win is BGSU's second of the year after winning Tennessee Tech's Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate on March 17-19.

From the Clubhouse
"It was a fun day on the links with the team! We get to see Toledo a few times a year, but this was the first time we have played them in a head-to-head match. It was exciting to have our own Battle of I-75 event. The match play format tends to have plenty of excitement and today was no different. I'm really proud of the team for fighting hard, enjoying the day, and ultimately securing the win. Now we will shift our focus to preparing for the MAC Championship." – Erin Fahey, BGSU head women's golf coach
