With a 26-stroke lead after the first round of competition the Illinois College Lady Blues coasted to their record 6th-consecutive title at the 2008 MWC Championships at Grinnell Golf and Country Club in Grinnell, Iowa. Head Coach Brenna Kelly's linksters captured five of the the ten All-Conference positions led by senior Meredith Robinson's gold medalist performance.

Among the highlights of the three-round championship were two eagles on the par-4 1st, one eagle on the par-4 10th and a hole-in-one on the par-3 11th on Saturday by Nicole Dematteo of Illinois College.

The Lady Blues also earned the MWC Automatic Bid to the NCAA Division III National Tournament held in May of 2009 in Palm Beach, Florida.

APPLETON , Wis. -- Marcus Heidorf has been named the new women's basketball coach at Lawrence University, Provost David Burrows announced Thursday. 

Heidorf comes to Lawrence from Alverno College, where he served as an assistant women's basketball coach last season. 

"I am impressed by Marc's enthusiasm and determination to build a strong program," Burrows said. "The students who met him are excited about him and are eager to begin working with him." 

As a native of nearby Manitowoc, Heidorf has closely followed the Lawrence women's basketball program and knows of the team's successes over the past two decades. He believes the Vikings will return to their position as one of the Midwest Conference's top teams.
