BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – After a week off from competition, the Bowling Green women's golf team returns to action on Monday, Oct. 3 through Tuesday Oct. 4 as it participates in the Kzoo Classic, hosted by Western Michigan.
The first Kzoo Classic event is to be held at The Moors Golf Club in Portage, Mich., on a par 72 and 6,163 yard course. The 54-hole tournament will begin with a 9:30 a.m. shotgun start on Monday in which the teams will complete 36-holes of play, followed by the final 18 on Tuesday morning in a 10 a.m. shotgun start.
The nine team field will consist of Bowling Green, Ball State, Central Michigan, Cleveland State, Davenport, Detroit, Fort Wayne, Ohio, and host school Western Michigan.
The Falcons will send out the same lineup as at the Ball State Cardinal Classic two weeks back, with the addition of freshman Jessica Madry. Starting with sophomore Erin Fahey in the number one position, the Falcons will send out freshman Brooke Nolte in the second spot, followed by senior Fran Rodriguez, and junior Madelynn Swank, while Madry rounds out the team lineup. Sophomore Sarah Kern will be competing individually for the Falcons at the Kzoo Classic.
The Falcons are coming off of an 11th place finish at the Cardinal Classic, hosted by Ball State on Sept. 19 and Sept. 20.
