Molly did not get a chance to compete a lot last year and we need her to come on strong for us this season. I expect good things out of Nicole this year. Park is the team's top returning scorer from last season, averaging 80.50 strokes per round and is the only returning medalist, having placed first overall at the Purdue Boilermaker Invitational last spring. Lindholm is a Michigan native who is capable of challenging her teammates for the team's top spot at every tournament. The key is that they both need to believe in themselves and their abilities.
Confidence is important in both of their games and how they play.
The Wolverines welcome one newcomer, Jennifer Baumann, an Okemos, Michigan native. Baumann had an impressive prep career in both varsity golf and tennis, but will commit her attention to the links while in college. An excellent student, Teichert sees Baumann as being able to observe and learn from her upperclass teammates as she hones her skills. Overall, Teichert will rely on Park and Westfall to lead, and for the other varsity members to play strong supporting roles.
