SACRAMENTO REGION, CA (MPG) - Winners of four of the past five Big Sky Championship titles, the Sacramento State women's golf team was unanimously selected to continue its dominance by being tabbed first in the coaches poll.
 
Sacramento State received all nine of the possible first-place votes as coaches were not permitted to vote for their own team. Northern Arizona, who finished second in the voting, received the other available first-place vote. 
 
The Hornets had an impressive fall campaign, which included a third-place finish at the Evie Odom Invitational and a fourth-place showing at the Golfweek Red Sky Classic. 
 
At the 2024 championship, Sacramento State cleared the field by 14 strokes, finished at 2-under par (282-282-286-850) as a team. That 54-hole total marked the lowest in Big Sky tournament history. 
 
Sacramento State's roster features a lot of veteran leadership, including 2023-24 Big Sky Player of the Year Sneha Sharan and 2023 individual champion Caitlin Maurice. 
 
Tabbed second, Northern Arizona features the league's defending individual champion in Lizzie Neale, who had the lowest 54-hole individual score of 203 (-10) at the 2024 championships. The remainder of the top five was comprised of Montana State, Weber State and Idaho.
 
The 2025 Big Sky Conference Women's Golf Championship will take place at The Wigwam in Litchfield Park, Arizona from April 14-16.
