LAST YEAR IN FORT COLLINS

TEARE HAS A BUSY SUMMER
Junior Kassidy Teare participated in two major championships this past summer as she qualified for the U.S. Women's Amateur Public Links Championship in Dupont, Wash., and the U.S. Women's Amateur Championship in Glen Cove, N.Y. This was the third consecutive year a 49er women's golfer as advanced to the WAPL Championship and second year in a row that a 49er has qualified to both USGA championship events.
49ERS WELCOME EDWARDS AS ASSISTANT COACH
This past summer, Long Beach State head women's golf coach Joey Cerulle announced the hiring of Alexis Edwards as assistant coach. Edwards replaces Sue Ewart who retired after serving 12 years as the 49ers' head coach and the past five seasons as an assistant. Edwards comes to the Beach from Cal State Monterey Bay where she served as head coach the last three seasons. She also served as interim head coach at Fresno State during the fall season in 2011. Edwards was a four-year letterwinner on the women's golf team at BYU.

LBSU returns to the Rocky Mountain State for the three-day Golfweek Conference Challenge, Sept. 22-24, at the Red Sky Golf Club in Wolcott, Colo.
