"The team had an amazing season of growth," Head Coach Maria Lopez said. "Each week we matched or broke records, overcoming fear and challenges along the way. Today continued a 19-year streak of winning a tournament, and we had seven of our 11 players finish in the top-20 individually!"

Joining Sierra on the All-Tournament Team were Brooks, Pollen, Whitten and UNC Pembroke's Katy Flax.

"There's nothing more important than family; the one you're given and the one you make," Lopez said. "This ERAU Golf family had quite the day and quite the run! Our seniors have been the emotional engine and guardians of our program. They came in embracing our "Student. Person. Player" standard and were willing to be our springboard into NCAA II competition. They have left a legacy of care, excellence, grit and heart that has made us very deep. I am eternally grateful to Catherine, Lovisa and Megan - they all have such bright futures ahead of them."
