BLUFFTON, Ohio - Sophomore Jordan Hemmelgarn (Coldwater) has been named the HCAC Women's Golf Athlete of the Week following her performance at the Earlham College Spring Invitational over the weekend.

Hemmelgarn notched her first collegiate victory, tying for top honors with a 162 after shooting 80 and 82! She shared the podium and HCAC Player of the Week honors with Alyssa Haverstraw from MSJ.

The Bluffton women placed 2nd on Saturday, April 19. Bluffton tallied a 337 one day after shooting a 343 as the Beavers finished the weekend with a 680, trailing just Mount St. Joseph.
