The team is currently in third place at the midway point of the 2010 NCAA Championships.
This season, Moe’s team produced three NGCA All-America selections (Katie Schenfeld, Taylor Drenttel, and Kali Griggs), four NCGA Midwest All-Region selections (Schenfeld, Drenttel, Griggs, and Ann Jackson), four all-conference honorees (Schenfeld, Drenttel, Griggs, and Jackson), MIAC Player of the Year (Schenfeld) and MIAC Senior Player of the Year (Griggs).
In his seventh year as head coach of the Gustavus women’s golf program, Moe has been named Midwest Region Coach of the Year three times (2008, 2009, and 2010) and MIAC Coach of the Year three times (2005, 2009, 2010). Eight of his golfers have earned All-America honors, while 12 golfers have earned All-Region status. He has directed his squad to two consecutive MIAC Championship Titles.
