CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland State women's golf team heads to Florida this week to participate in the Horizon League Championship at the Mission Inn Resort & Club in Howey-in-the-Hills, Fla. The championship will be conducted over three days beginning with the opening round on Sunday (April 21).

Cleveland State enters the tournament as the fourth seed, while IUPUI is the top seed heading into championship play.

Neumeister leads the Vikings with a 76.8 scoring average and has four top-five finishes on the season.

Butler ranks second on the team with a 76.9 scoring average and leads the Vikings with seven top-20 finishes on the season.

Ashley Knight, who tied for 22nd place at last year's Horizon League Championship, ranks third on the Vikings with a 78.8 stroke average.
