The Cascade Collegiate Conference (CCC) has announced the 2026 Women's Golf Coaches' Preseason Poll, with Corban University women's golf team tied for seventh place, securing 12 voting points. The Warriors share this position with Walla Walla University as they prepare for the 2026-27 season. Head coach Charlie Marshall notes that with only four players returning, peak performance will be essential to remain competitive. The team looks to build on last season's progress and harness the experience gained by their mostly underclassman roster.

By the Numbers
  • Corban earned 12 points in the preseason poll, tying for seventh place.
  • Last season, Corban finished eighth at the CCC Championships, improving from a sixth-place finish in 2025.
State of Play
  • Corban will rely on juniors Ashlyn Thomas and Madelyn Moore, along with junior Kaylee Umbright and freshman Amanda Ramirez.
  • Graduate student Kristin Senatra was a key player last season, earning All-CCC recognition with a scoring average of 78.6.
What's Next

The Warriors aim to leverage the championship experience gained last season to improve their standing in the upcoming CCC tournaments. The release of the 2026 NAIA Women's Golf Coaches Preseason Poll will further shape expectations as the season progresses.

Bottom Line

For the Corban women's golf team, the key takeaway is their need for consistency and high-level performance from a small roster to succeed in a competitive conference landscape. Their trajectory shows promise, but results will depend significantly on the growth of their core players.
