Mount Union will host the 2023 Ohio Athletic Conference Women's Golf Championships Friday-Sunday, April 21 - 23 at River Greens Golf Course in West Lafayette, Ohio.
The OAC Women's Golf Championship will be a 54-hole event with 18 holes each day over three days.
Otterbein and Ohio Northern tied after 54 holes and in a one-hole playoff, the Cardinals emerged as the conference champion by a single stroke.
The event was so close that there was a tie for Medalist honors between Otterbein's Lyndsey Blum and Ohio Northern's Grace Honigford.
The team that wins the OAC Tournament gets an automatic bid to the NCAA Championships May 9-12 at Mission Inn Resort & Club in Howey-in-the-Hills, Florida.
