SACRAMENTO, Calif. —
The Sacramento State women’s golf team is driving the distance this spring.
“Our ability to strike the ball, we can hit the ball at a high level and are as good as any team in the country,” Hornets Head Coach David Sutherland said.
Sac State owns a 62-28-1 overall record through seven tournaments and ranks 48th in the country, its highest ranking in school history.
“I think we have a team better than what we are ranked, and we’ve shown we can compete with most of teams in the country if not all of them,” Sutherland said.
The Hornets players hail from across the globe, from India, Sweden, Chile, New Zealand and the United States.
“Every year he’s recruited girls all over the world,” said senior Sneha Sharan.
“We really are the United Nations,” Sutherland added.
Sharan leads the Hornets as the reigning Big Sky Player of the Year and recently won her second Conference Player of the Week honor.
“I love competing against myself and I like the quietness of it while coming back every single day trying to get better,” Sharan said.
The Hornets head to Lahaina, Hawaii, for the Dr. Donnis Thompson Invitational starting on March 24.
