Women’s Golf Wins Back-to-Back Horizon League Championships

HOWEY-IN-THE-HILLS, Fla. – The Women's Golf team wins their third Horizon League Championship in four years after a dominant final round to claim the team title. This also marks the program's fourth title in its history.

The Golden Grizzlies claim the 2025 Horizon League Championship title after three days, April 19 to April 21, on the challenging El Campeón course. The squad came into the weekend as the reigning champions, following their runaway victory to claim the 2024 title. In 2022, the Golden Grizzlies won the Horizon League Championship, kicking off their dominant run in the Horizon League. This marks the fourth title in program history.

The Golden Grizzlies claim the 2025 Horizon League Championship behind a solid team performance. With a rough start on Saturday, the team came back Sunday and posted the best second round score out of the entire field. This came by way of all Golden Grizzlies shooting under 81 in the second round. Using this momentum, the third round was no different. The team shot a combined 299 (+7) in the third round to move up from third to first place, claiming the title. The Golden Grizzlies carded a final score of 327, 301, 299, for a combined score of 927 (+51).

Olivia Hemmila, Grace Boczar, and Lily Bargamian were the core that led the Golden Grizzlies. Lily Bargamian finished the weekend fifth overall after shooting 82, 77, and 75, to finish 15 over par. Grace Boczar got out to a great start, shooting 80, 75, and 77 (+13), to finish fourth overall individually. Olivia Hemmila caught fire, finishing third overall after carding rounds of 81, 75, and 74 (+11). This core group propelled the Golden Grizzlies to the top of the leaderboard. Hemmila, Boczar, and Bargamian were all named to the 2025 Horizon League All-Tournament team for their performance. 

In her first season at the helm, Heather Fortushniak claims her first Horizon League title. She led the Golden Grizzlies to their third title in four seasons. Throughout the season, the Golden Grizzlies have four top-five finishes, and seven top-ten finishes. Two Golden Grizzlies have been named Horizon League Women's Golfers of the Week under her leadership this season. 

With this Horizon League Championship title, the Golden Grizzlies will compete in the NCAA Regional.
