TEEING OFF
The No. 2 DBU Women's Golf team returns to action Monday at the National Preview in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The Patriots enter the week riding a wave of momentum after claiming their first tournament title of the fall at the DBU Classic, firing a 10-under-par (566) over two rounds at Oakmont Country Club in Corinth, Texas.

DBU's victory at the DBU Classic marked a statement performance against one of the toughest fields in the nation. Junior Madison Ude stole the spotlight, capturing her first career individual title in dominant fashion. The Keller, Texas, native finished at 9-under (135), outpacing a field featuring nine top-25 programs in the WGCA rankings. Her final round was electric—featuring eight birdies and a remarkable stretch of four straight on holes 12–15—to lock up the medalist crown.

Freshman Chloe Sirkin turned in a breakout performance of her own, notching her first career top-five finish at 2-under par. Junior Ella Cheek extended her run of steady play with a 10th-place finish, marking her 15th career top-10 showing, while Gracie Grant added a strong 14th-place finish at 1-over par to round out a balanced and dominant team effort.

PATRIOT STORYLINES

• Starting Five: BU's lineup this week features Ella Cheek, Gracie Grant, Chloe Sirkin, Presley Bolado, and Madison Ude.
• Depth on Display: Through their first two events, the Patriots have seen five different players record top-10 finishes on the individual leaderboard.
• Birdie Machine: Junior Madison Ude leads DBU with 17 birdies through the team's opening two tournaments.
• History in the Making: Head Coach Kenny Trapp enters the National Preview one win shy of his 92nd career victory, which would tie the NCAA Division II record for most all-time wins.
• Elite Company: DBU will face off against 11 teams this week, including eight ranked inside the WGCA Top 25, making for one of the most competitive fields of the fall.
