The team, known as the Maroons, finished second with a team score of 408, just behind Grand Rapids NorthPointe Christian who claimed the top spot with a score of 361. Junior Annika Kruithof was the standout performer for the Maroons, finishing fourth overall with an impressive 18-hole total of 89. Senior Olivia Vangelder contributed a solid 101 and secured 13th place overall. Seniors Viola Cassel and Chloe Tait tied for 26th with scores of 109, while junior Rebecca Boerman finished 29th with a 111.
