The Missouri Western Women’s golf team was struggling to find someone to fill their roster up to four players. Head Coach Cathy Habermehl was desperate for anyone who could strike a ball or stroke a putt.

That desperation led her to select a Music Education major with no competitive golfing experience in high school or college.
People may wonder where or how Habermehl could find such a player. However, the slim possibility and timing that led to the discovery of Missouri Western senior golfer Kim Evans could only mean one thing. This was not a coincidence.

While playing golf at Lakeview Golf Course in the small town of Hamilton, Mo., Habermehl found the player to round out the roster. This was probably the last place she expected to find her fourth member.

Evans didn’t play golf in high school because she was playing softball in the fall at the same time golf was taking place. She was a varsity level athlete in every sport she participated in which included basketball, track, and the aforementioned softball. She only played golf once a year and that was during the summer.
