South Dakota women's golf head coach Brett Bennett announced the addition of two new golfers Thursday. Ella Greenberg and Avery O'Donnell will join the Coyotes as members of the 2023 class.
 
"As we continue to build a culture of success, I am very excited to add Ella and Avery to our program for the fall of 2023," Bennett said. "These two will have a great impact on our program as they continue to grow as players and people. Their success in the classroom has translated to the golf course through high school, and we will see that transition here at the college level also. They will come in and help continue to make our team competitive within the Summit League."
