TEEING OFF
The No. 2-ranked DBU Women's Golf team continued their dominant fall campaign, claiming their third straight tournament title with a team score of 16-over par (584) at the West Regional Preview on Tuesday at Pueblo Country Club in Pueblo, Colorado.

Leading the charge was Madison Ude, who delivered a flawless performance to secure her second medalist honor of the season, finishing at even-par 142 across two rounds. The victory also carried historic significance, as Head Coach Kenny Trapp recorded his 93rd career win, making him the all-time winningest coach in NCAA Division II Women's Golf history.

Entering the final round with an 11-shot advantage, the Patriots never looked back—cruising to a 26-stroke victory over Cal State Los Angeles to cap off another commanding team performance.

DBU's success was a total team effort, with three players finishing inside the top 10. Ude was joined by Ella Cheek, who finished third at 3-over par, and Gracie Grant, who tied for eighth at 7-over. Freshman Presley Bolado also impressed, posting her best finish of the fall in 12th place at 8-over par (150).
