Illinois Wesleyan University's women's golf team secured its 19th College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) Championship, setting a new record. The team finished with a 54-hole total of 899, surpassing the second-place team by 65 strokes at Metamora Fields Golf Club on October 5.

Senior Macy Ludwig led the Titans, achieving her fourth career win with a total score of 216. Her performance set a new record for the lowest score in CCIW history. Freshman Gigi Zera finished third with a score of 229, while senior Jadyn Spinks placed fourth at 231.

Sophomore Nora Cerroni came in sixth place with a score of 237. Seniors Kylie Hundman and Jacque O'Neill tied for seventh and ninth places, respectively. All six Titans earned top-10 finishes and received All-CCIW honors as Illinois Wesleyan claimed its third consecutive conference title.

Ludwig was awarded the CCIW Elite 26 Award alongside Elmhurst's Regan Bobich for having the highest GPA among All-CCIW performers. Since the award's inception in 2021, Illinois Wesleyan has had recipients each year.

The team's victory grants them an automatic bid to the 2025 NCAA Division III Women's Golf Championship. Their next competition is the Golfweek October Classic from October 13 to October 15 in Miramar Beach, Florida.
