VIENNA, Ohio – After a month and a half of preparation, the Geneva women's golf team traveled west to participate in the Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) Fall Championships today, a two-day event featuring all the women's golf teams in the PAC. Following Day One, the women sit in ninth place overall, recording a team score of 431. Westminster leads the pack with a team score of 337.

Sophomore Madison Sharek was the top performer for the women, shooting an 82 to finish the first round of the Championships in second place overall, just two strokes behind Westminster's Ava Liburdi.
