SPOKANE, Wash. – Gonzaga women's golf head coach Victoria Fallgren-Murphy announced the hiring of Grace Lindgren as the program's assistant coach.
Lindgren joins the Bulldogs after serving as the graduate assistant coach at Northern Arizona for the past two seasons while earning a master's degree in Organizational Leadership and Project Management. During her time with the Lumberjacks, she helped guide the program to the 2026 Big Sky Conference Championship and was part of four tournament victories. Her responsibilities included coaching student-athletes during practice and competition, assisting with recruiting and team operations, organizing travel, managing social media, and coordinating fundraising and tournament administration.
"I am thrilled to welcome Grace to the Zag family as our Assistant Women's Golf Coach," Fallgren-Murphy said. "She brings an exceptional blend of collegiate coaching experience and a proven passion for student-athlete development that will make an immediate impact on our program. Grace embraces the core tenets of our team culture: our commitment to recruiting and developing ambitious student-athletes ready to embrace our Jesuit ideals while excelling on the golf course and in the classroom. Her experience helping lead Northern Arizona to a Big Sky Conference Championship, paired with her energy and eagerness to learn, makes her a fantastic addition to our program as we embark on a new era in the Pac-12 and I couldn't be more excited to get to work!"
Prior to joining Northern Arizona, Lindgren was a four-year collegiate golfer, competing at Northern Michigan before finishing her playing career at The College of Wooster. She graduated from Wooster in 2024 with a bachelor's degree in mathematics after serving as team captain, co-president of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and campus captain for The Hidden Opponent mental health organization. She earned Women's Golf Coaches Association All-America Scholar recognition in both 2023 and 2024.
