KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A tremendous start to the 2026-27 season by the Lady Owls allowed Oregon Tech to climb seven spots to No. 12 in the first regular-season NAIA Top-25 Women's Golf Poll, released by the national office.

OIT earned 335 voter points by the 15 conference raters, one spot ahead of Cascade Conference rival Lewis-Clark State, while fellow CCC foe, British Columbia, sits atop the ranking.

The Lady Owls have a team win this season at the Grisham Memorial Shoot-Out, a second-place effort at the RCA Electric Invite and have placed a close third to UBC and LCSC at the initial two CCC events.

Tech closes out the first half of the season next week at the Gold Mountain Invite in Bremerton, Wash.
