GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) -

Senior women's golfer Ellyn Hansen (Milton, Wis.) is in her final year as a student-athlete at Green Bay. Hansen recently finished up her last fall season and has mixed reactions about the conclusion of her career in the spring.

"It hasn't sunk in yet that it is my last year of competition. We still have our spring season, but when that concludes it will be an array of emotions," said Hansen.

During Hansen's time here she proved to be a critical addition to the team. Her first year corresponded with the founding of the first women's golf team at Green Bay. Since Hansen was the first player to sign, she took part in the formulation of the new team and took on a leadership role from day one.

"Since we were all freshmen, there was no one to show us the way," said Hansen. "It was a new experience and everyone was trying to find their place within the team and school.  Despite the challenges, it's been an awesome and rewarding experience."

After the initial start-up, Hansen continued to excel throughout her four years. She decreased her average each year and now has the lowest average on the team for the year. Hansen's lowest score was 75 achieved at the Butler Fall Invitational on Oct., 5.

Not only has Hansen found success on the golf course, but also in the academic setting as well. In her pursuit of a mathematics major with an emphasis in statistics and minors in business administration and economics she has maintained a GPA of 3.7. Hansen has also received Horizon League all-academic honors every semester.

Hansen will return to action in the spring to finish out her successful collegiate career.

"My plans after this year are possibly entering the workforce as an actuary or in my ideal field of sports statistics," said Hansen. "Another option is coming back for a fifth year as an assistant coach and picking up another major."
