The Linfield Tournament is part of a series of events hosted by Northwest Conference schools for the Oregon teams which are members of the NWC: George Fox, Linfield, Willamette University, Pacific University, and Lewis & Clark College. The four NWC teams in Washington also have their own series in the fall. All nine schools then come together for the NWC Fall Classic, with the results counting toward one-quarter of the team scores for determining the conference champion (the NWC Spring Classic counts another quarter and the NWC Championship in the spring counts for the final half).

Bruin Athletic Association Women's Athlete of the Week (Sept. 17-23)
* Bruins' "Swing for the Cure" Raises $200 for Komen Foundation
While playing in the Pacific 5-Way Tournament at the Quail Valley Golf Course in Banks, Ore., on Sept. 23, the George Fox Bruins also did a little fund-raising in support of the Susan G. Komen Foundation for breast cancer research. Technocom, Inc., a total communication technology provider based in Wilsonville, Ore., offered $10 for each par and birdie that was made by a George Fox player, resulting in a contribution of $200 to the Foundation after the Bruins recorded two birdies and 18 pars. Freshman Mandy Cameron collected both birdies on back-to-back holes, with a 4 on the par-5 #3 hole and a 2 on the par-3 #4 hole.
