Men’s Team
The Rockets first-year Men’s Head Coach Jeff Roope spent 10 years as both Men’s and Women’s Head Coach at Wittenberg.
Roope inherited a somewhat experienced team with two seniors, two juniors, four sophomores and two freshmen. The team has an international flavor with two of the team members from Scotland, and one each from Ireland and England. The balance of the team is from Ohio and Michigan.
They began their spring season with a win over Depaul and 3-3 ties with Eastern Michigan and Miami at the Earl Yesingsmeier Match Play.
UT will compete in the Louisiana Classics, the Fort Lauderdale Intercollegiate, Mission Inn Springs Specatular, Seahawk Intercollegiate and the Boiler Invitational before the Mid-American Conference Championships in late April.

UT Women’s Team
The University of Toledo Women’s Golf Team began their Spring schedule with a win at the Battle of Boulder Creek in Las Vegas. Sophomore Pinyada Kuvanun improved every round with scores of 77-73-70 to win the Individual title. The Lady Rockets captured the team title, as well, in the nine-team event.
The team was left without a Head Coach, however, as Nicole Hollingsworth announced she would leave her position immediately on February 13.
Associate Athletic Director Kelly Andrews and Graduate Assistant Sathika Ruenreong will supervise the program and travel with the team to its tournaments, while the search for a new Head Coach is underway.
