...strong opening to the spring season for the women’s golf team, which finished second out of twenty-one teams in the Jekyll Island Tournament March 24-26. With decent Georgia weather, the team was able to steal three top ten finishes, with five golfers finishing in the top 25. “It was a little overcast the first two days, other than that it was a lot warmer,” senior captain Jennifer Cronan said. “That’s the reason we went to Georgia, in search of better weather. It makes...
