LOUDONVILLE, NY - Under first year head coach Noel Gebauer, Siena Women's Golf is set to open its fall slate in Milford, CT at the Sacred Heart Fall Classic hosted by Great River Golf Club from September 9-10. 
 
The Green and Gold will then have outings at the Red Bandana Invitational (Sept. 23-24), UAlbany Great Danes Invitational (Oct. 5-6), and the Holy Cross Invitational (Oct. 21-22) to cap-off its four-tournament fall season. 
 
Siena returns five letterwinners from last season who look to improve upon an eighth place finish at the 2024 MAAC Championships. Among the returners is two-time MAAC Golfer of the Week, junior Mackenzie Whitney, who tied for first place at the Crosstown Challenge last year to pair with four top-10 finishes. 
 
The team's top-two finishers at the 2024 MAAC Championships, senior captain Jillian Barend and sophomore Emely Kintzel, are back in action, while Manoela Barcellos and Isabella Silva roundout the team's core from last year. 
 
Siena competed at the SHU Fall Classic last season from Oct. 15-17 at Great River Golf Club. The team placed fourth out of eight teams, shooting +122 (986) over the 54-hole tournament. Whitney turned in a ninth place finish at +21 while shooting four-over-par on the third and final day. Kintzel (+23) and Barend (+31) turned in top-20 finishes as well. 
 
The Saints will return to action at the Red Bandanna Invitational from Sept. 23-24 at Blue Hill Country Club in Canton, MA.
