The Michigan women’s golf team opened its 2021-22 season winning the Wolverine Invitational in mid-September by 12 shots. It was the program’s 11th home event title in 24 tries with a U-M Golf Course women’s team record 851 (-1) — the first sub-par tally ever at U-M’s home course.
The entire starting five finished in the top 20 individually, including co-medalist Mikaela Schulz, who shot 68-70-72 = 210 (-3).
“To win anywhere is special and meaningful, to do it at home, under the conditions we had, was just icing on the cake,” said U-M head coach Jan Dowling. “We’ve been knocking on the door several times in the past year.
“What a great win for Mikaela,” said Dowling. “She got off to bit of a rocky start but pushed through and really had an awesome back nine in very windy conditions.”
Michigan’s Ashley Lau placed 4th individually with 214 and Hailey Borja took 6th place at 215.
