“A better day today,” Head Coach Zach Anderson said. “From start to end, the women fought hard. Very proud of the battle they showed on this tough track. Chase had a solid event. I am extremely proud of her and her development thus far during her time as a Warrior. We will clean things up from this week and look to end the fall on a high note in Bremerton. Warrior Women’s Golf is trending.”
