The Tokyo native is no stranger to the Big 12 after spending the previous two seasons with the Iowa State Cyclones.

🔼 Keep It Movin’. Twentieth-seeded Oklahoma State women's golf secured its spot inside the 54-hole, 15-team cut with a 12-over 300 in the third round at the NCAA Championship at Grayhawk Golf Club this weekend.
