Methodist Men and Women Ranked at Top of Golf World Poll
Monarchs remain premier teams in NCAA Division III

NEW YORK, NY-  Golf World magazine recently released updated rankings for NCAA men's and women's golf. The Methodist men and women have historically dominated Division III golf and their top rankings reflect their success.

The Methodist women earned all fourteen first place votes to remain at the top of the NCAA Division III women's poll. The Monarchs finished in a tie for fifth at the Richmond Spiders Invitational yesterday and will finish their fall season at the Ross Resorts Invitational at the end of the month. The women are led by senior Katie Dick and sophomore Susan Martin from last year's national championship team.

The men's team recaptured the top spot in the newest poll after receiving eight of the 17 first place votes. Methodist finished third in the Tom O'Briant Memorial last week. Their fall season concludes following the Oglethorpe Invitational Monday and Tuesday. The Monarchs return their entire team from last year's USA South Championship and are seeking their tenth national championship this spring.
