Deborah Reinders, recently appointed women's varsity golf coach, has high hopes for her first season. Although the team has lost four-time MVP Sue Johnson, who graduated and turned professional, the Green women will field a balanced team this spring with four of five returning letter- winners competing. Reinders will rely most heavily on seniors Kim Butler and Maureen Murphy, co-captains and three-year veterans and both capable of holding down the number-one position. Although Murphy has the most tournament experience of the two, Butler has moved up from a 100's shooter to a player who can consistently break 80. She was runner-up to Johnson in last spring's New England Championship.
Giving depth and balance to the 1986 squad are junior Tammy MacAllister, a former New Hampshire state junior champion who missed most of her sophomore season, sophomore Lynn Currey, a rapidly-improving player, and seniors Suzy Dunseath and Annette Faubion.
The youngest of Dartmouth's women's varsity sports, the golf team has tasted success at several invitational tournaments and at the ECAC Championship. In 1983, the team won the ECAC Championship and last spring claimed a runaway victory at the New England Championship as well as a second straight title at the Rutgers Invitational.
The team's new coach comes from Lebanon, N.H. Also assistant golf professional at the Hanover Country Club, she has been runner-up in the Windsor (Vt.) Country Club championship many times. She was a member of the Windsor Country Club's board of director for three years and president of the Women's Sports Committee at Windsor. A graduate of the University of Vermont, she is a certified physical education instructor in New Hampshire. Most recently, she coached the girls' varsity track team at Lebanon High School and she previously taught physical education at the elementary school level in Grantham, N.H. She is also a ski instructor at Whaleback Ski Area and serves as president of the advisory board to Kappa Alpha Theta sorority at the College.
