DURANGO, Colo. – The Fort Lewis College men's and women's golf teams are prepped and heading West this Sunday to Tuesday, Apr. 19-21, for the 2026 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Championships at a familiar Boulder Creek Golf Club in Boulder City, Nev.

For the fourth-straight season, the conference championships will test the league's best around the Boulder Creek Golf Club, which offers three separate nine-hole runs that combine to offer unique championship-level golf in the desert. The action starts on Sunday morning with the women's championship at 9:30 a.m., followed by the men's championship at 10 a.m.

On the men's side, the Skyhawks will tackle the Coyote Run and Desert Hawk rotation, which stretches out to 7,428 yards from the black tees with a rating of 75.8 and a slope of 142. As for the women's side, the Skyhawks will face the Eldorado and Coyote Run rotation, which spans 6,055 yards with a rating of 68.0 and a slope of 117.

Last season, the Fort Lewis women's squad set a program record with a fifth-place finish backed by a team score of 905 (+41). The Skyhawks finished 18 strokes back from a top-three podium finish and 21 strokes back from the team title. Peyton Gibby led a quartet of Skyhawks inside the top 20, capturing 10^th as an individual in her first conference championships after carding a 223 (+7). Dimery Plewe took T-15 on a 227 (+11), Isabel Bustillos T-17 with a 228 (+12), and Sarah Grenemyer T-20 on a 231 (+15).

The Fort Lewis men finished in the middle of the pack last spring, matching Colorado School of Mines in T-4 with team scores of 847 (-17). Despite the strong under-par score, the Skyhawks trailed third-place Colorado Mesa University by one stroke, and future national runners-up Colorado Christian University ran away from the field by 24 strokes with a 50-under-par 814. Jordan Jennings secured a podium finish and bronze medal honors after capturing T-3 on a lethal 206 (-10). Former Skyhawks Tyler Tyson and Ronald Kildall III were the only others inside the top 20, both in T-11 with a pair of 212s (-4).

Representing the Skyhawks this year, on the women's team, are Plewe, Gibby, Bustillos, Ellie White, Kathryn Moores, and Annika Gutierrez. The men's team will consist of Jennings, Traejan Andrews, Jake Chesler, Benjamin Harding, Ian Henderson, and Chase Rogers.
