Addi continues to amaze us with her abilities and work ethic. She has truly set the standard on what it takes and means to "Be Golden." Her desire to grow and work the process is what makes her truly special.

We are pleased to have a roster of six new players on the team this year. Maddie Childs, Jadyn McDonald, Nora Benson, Carmen Jirele, Tatum Gatheridge and Kennedy Mara. They bring an air of excitement to the entire team. Each player will add an element of greatness to our team.

Payton is a junior at Augustana this year. Her golf game has improved each year. I expect nothing different this golf season. Her dedication to working hard along with her physical strength will ensure her drive on the course.

We are returning a solid core of players that has a lot of experience competing at the highest level, each able to take steps individually that have helped raise the expectations for team success. With our new additions, I’m excited to see how we can build upon recent success and continue to take steps forward as the year goes on.

Haylee has continued to improve each year and finished last season with a strong showing at conference tournament. She has all the tools to consistently score low and I look forward to seeing her put all the pieces together to finish her career on a high note.

We're excited to add four talented freshman to our roster this year to mix in with our returning experienced players. There is surely going to be some growth and competition as we work our steps and rise to our goals.

I can't wait to get started with the team and start building a winning culture at UJ!

Kacie is coming off of a great season where she had two wins and three top-3 finishes.

We are excited about the potential of this year's team. We gained valuable experience last season that has helped build confidence for this season. The addition of two talented freshmen brings new energy and depth to the lineup.

Annie continues to lead our team, bringing a level of maturity and confidence in her play. She is a leader and represents our program greatly. I am excited to watch and coach her this fall.

I’m really excited about the potential of our team this season. We have three incoming freshmen who will have the opportunity to make a big impact on our lineup after losing three incredible seniors last year. I’m excited to see how they develop alongside our returning upperclassmen, who will provide great leadership and mentorship throughout the season. I think the combination of our experienced players and new talent gives us a great opportunity to continue building our program and compete at a high level.

Ainsley has the ability to be one of the top players in the region this season. She is an incredibly talented golfer who is fiercely competitive and brings a great attitude and work ethic to our team every day. Even more importantly, she is an outstanding person and a great teammate. We’re excited to see her have a strong senior season and help lead our team alongside an outstanding group of teammates.

I'm excited to see what this season brings. Returning Emerson and our upperclassmen, as well as adding transfer Kelby Anderson who had a great season and a half with Winona State just a year ago. We also bring in a couple good freshman who will be able to get some experience and help contribute right away.

Emerson is coming off another pretty solid year as a Sophomore. She averaged 77.4, she finished T-20th at the Central Region Tournament to help lead us to a National Championship appearance. She had two victories in the fall winning The Jewel Invitational and The Everspring Invite. She capped off a very good summer winning the Sanford Collegiate.

I'm thrilled to get rolling with this group. The team set many program records the past two seasons and I'm eager to get working with them. They are a great group of ladies who are fun to work with. They impress me everyday and we are excited to compete as a team. Resilience is our motto for the 2026-2027 campaign, Roll Drags!!

We are thrilled to add Sydney Miller to our program! She joins us after a successful freshman campaign at UMary. Sydney is a NSIC player to watch this season because of her relentless work ethic and determination to improve every day. Coming from a prestigious program at Detroit Lakes High School, she understands what it takes to compete at a high level. Her dedication on and off the course has positioned her to be another leader for our program this year. Sydney's competitive mindset and positive attitude help set the standard for our team while bringing out the best in her teammates. Expect her to make a significant impact this season as she continues to grow into one of our top performers.

This year’s team is a great mix of new and experienced golfers. The talent we recruited this year is incredible! I’m excited to watch Emily (Watts) and Natalie (Van Dort) out on the course, and to see how far Carlie (Brown) has come over the summer! We’re going to have a fun team to watch this year, and I’m really looking forward to it!

Emily is a go-getter! She has lofty goals, and an amazing work ethic! Coming from Canada, she’s been grinding on the course and has had some amazing finishes during her high-school career. As a true freshman, she’s got a hunger to win, and her mindset doesn’t let anything get in her way! She’s going to be really fun to watch this season!

We have a very experienced team, with six golfers (three seniors, two juniors and a sophomore) who have played in nearly every tournament since they stepped on campus. I have added some freshmen that I am excited about and hope they are ready for college competition. We did not have a good year in 2025-26 and really weren't competitive until late in the spring. Our fifth-place finish in the NSIC Championship was disappointing so I hope that will be motivation with a lot better focus right from the start. Our schedule is not easy so we are going to find out rather quickly just how much time and effort we spent playing this summer.

Gwen was a pleasant surprise for me as a freshman. She won a tournament and posted the lowest-scoring average on the team. What I like about Gwen is her approach to golf. She works really hard and wants to be the best. Gwen is just as good in the classroom, compiling a 3.98 GPA in her first year in the Nursing program. I think this season is going to be a breakout one for Gwen, where we are going to see her be more consistent overall, resulting in a much lower scoring average.

What excites me most about this year's team is the balance of experience and opportunity. We have a roster that blends proven leadership with a large group of talented newcomers ready to make an immediate impact. That kind of makeup creates energy throughout the program—veteran players set the standard while freshmen push everyone to improve every day. The current roster reflects that youthful foundation, with returning experience from upperclassmen and a sizable incoming class.

After an impressive freshman campaign, Carly enters her sophomore season as a rising star. She played a key role in our team success last year and has the ability to anchor this year's team. I look forward to watching her step into a leadership role and helping elevate our program's success this year.

I am excited about having a foundation to build our new program off of this first year.

Emmalyn will be a pivotal part of us building this program, her work ethic and dedication to golf will be an asset. 

We have a great group of returners that have found a lot of success these last few years. We return our top 3 scoring averages and 4 of our top 5 scorers from the 2026 conference winning group. We also have a large class of 6 incoming freshman players with a lot of talent. In that incoming group we have a Nebraska Class A Individual Champion and another player who has consistently been a top player in Iowa the last four years. The incoming group has the potential to help us right away and build our success for several years to come. We are excited to push our returners to take our program to new heights, while building a future with our incoming class.

Gaia had a great spring season and finished the year winning the NSIC Individual Championship. Gaia continues to show progress at becoming one of the top players in the league each week. Gaia averaged 76.80 in scoring average and we look forward to seeing the scoring average continue to drop in this 2027 season.

This team has a great mix of talent and enthusiasm. I am excited to see our players come together, embrace the challenge of competing, and getting better every day. Our focus is on building something special, and I can't wait to get the season started.

I am excited to coach Megan this season. She has a great opportunity to make an immediate impact, and I am looking forward to seeing her continue to grow and reach her potential. I know she will lead the team and will push them to work hard and play good golf.
