TRI-CITY AREA — St. Clair County Community College has added women’s golf to its athletic offerings, making it one of only a handful of colleges in the Michigan Community College’s Athletic Association fielding a team.
With the addition of women’s golf, SC4 now offers a dozen collegiate sports teams. The college also offers cross country, basketball, bowling, baseball, softball, volleyball, golf and wrestling.
The women’s golf team will begin play in the 2020-21 season and will be recruiting players during the year.
“A women’s golf team will contribute to the college’s growing reputation as a leader in community college athletics,” SC4 Athletic Director Dale Vos said in a news release. “Golf is an ever growing sport in the region and across the nation,” he noted.
“We are thrilled to provide the opportunity for women to succeed and lead in this sport.”
The team will be coached by Celina Grondin, who serves as an institutional instructor at SC4.
“I am thrilled to play a role in launching a women’s golf program in our region,” Grondin said. “I look forward to working with athletes to enhance their skills in confidence both on and off the course,” she noted.
