HUDSONVILLE, Mich. -- Saint Mary's College was announced as the 2023-24 Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) regular-season champion at the conclusion of six conference rounds: four jamborees in the fall and two rounds in the Spring Finale hosted by The University of Olivet. This is the eleventh time in program history that the Belles earned the league crown. Additionally, the slate of All-MIAA honorees was announced.
Saint Mary's senior Haley Angel clinched the honor of the MIAA Most Valuable Golfer following a sudden-death tiebreaker between herself, Hope College's Abby Fansler and Adrian College's Lauren Reed who all concluded six rounds of conference play with an average of 79.33.
Senior Rayna Honsowitz of Olivet was voted the 2023-24 Sportsmanship Award recipient by her conference opponents. The Sportsmanship Award is given to a junior or senior who demonstrates outstanding ethical conduct and golf sportsmanship.
Alma College's Morgan Yates and Calvin University's Chandler Sjoerdsma both earned All-MIAA accolades for the fourth time in their careers. Adrian's Riley Kleck received All-MIAA honors for a third time, while teammates Olivia Ohmer and Lauren Reed, along with Trine University's Grace Dubec are second-time honorees.
Saint Mary's will receive the league's automatic bid in the NCAA Division III Tournament which will be held May 21-24 in Nicholasville, Kentucky.
