Tucson, AZ – The Pima Community College women’s golf season came to a close on Thursday in the final round of the NJCAA National Championship in Mesa.

Sophomore Araceli Esquivel (Salpointe Catholic HS) took home NJCAA All-American Honorable Mention honors as she finished tied for 17th place. She struggled a bit in the final round but maintained her spot in the individual standings. She shot a 318 (86-76-76-80) for the tournament.

 

This is the third straight year the women’s golf program has produced an NJCAA All-American. Desiree Hong earned All-American status in 2016 and 2017 for the Aztecs.
