The Women’s Golf Coaches Association (WGCA) has released its second coaches poll of the spring season, and little has changed since February. The top teams, it seems, have made their case.
The order at the top remained unchanged in Division I with USC on top and Texas holding steady at No. 2 after seven first-place votes. The Longhorns have won the team title in their past two outings. The remaining top five teams are also unchanged.
In Division II, Dallas Baptist University remains No. 1 with six first-place votes, while Barry
University received six first-place votes to finish closely behind at No. 2, a two-spot jump.
In Division III, Carleton College received all but one first-place vote to remain at No. 1, while George Fox University holds steady at No. 2 after earning the remaining first-place vote.
