PULLMAN, Wash. – The University of Idaho women's golf team opened the 2016-17 season the way it ended the 2015-16 season – winning.
In their first tournament of the fall, the Vandals powered through Palouse Ridge Golf Course to win the WSU Cougar Cup by four strokes over Washington State and Cal State-Fullerton – the two teams tied for second. Idaho shot an even-par 864 for the 54 holes. WSU and CSF had 868s with Sacramento State at 879 and fourth.
The Vandals trailed the host Cougars by one going into the final day and used a 68 by Amy Hasenoehrl and a 69 by Sophie Hausmann to take over the tournament.
