February 21, 2018 | Women's Golf
RIO VERDE, Ariz. – The Bowling Green State University women's golf program continues its spring schedule this weekend at the Rio Verde Collegiate Invitational. The invitational, which is being hosted by Western Michigan University, is being held at the Rio Verde Country Club over Feb. 23-25. The action will take place on the Quail Run course.
QUOTE FROM COACH YOUNG
"We are looking forward to getting back into stroke play and spring competition. We will be playing the opposite course (Quail Run) this week, and I think it will set up well for our team. They have been practicing hard and are really playing for one another."
