MINNEAPOLIS – Head coach Matt Higgins and the Minnesota women's golf team have announced the signing of Jordana Windhorst-Knudsen to the incoming 2024-25 freshman class.
"Very excited to add Jordana to the Gopher women's golf team this fall," said head coach Matt Higgins. "To add someone of her ability so late in this process is truly a gift! She has been one of the best junior players in the state and we are very fortunate that things worked out."
Windhorst-Knudsen is a native of Lake City, Minn., and attended Lake City High School. She was crowned an individual MSHSL 2A State Champion in 2024 and was a three time section champion while at Lake City. Jordana was a runner-up for the 2024 Ms. Minnesota Golf award and holds the record for low stroke average at Lake City High School. Recently, she was named Minnesota Jr. PGA Champion.
In her high school career, Jordana helped her team become two-time MSHSL 2A State Champions (2021 and 2022). She also guided Lake City to 2A State Runner-Up finishes in the 2023 and 2024 seasons.
Windhorst-Knudsen will join fellow Minnesota native Reese McCauley as a member of the 2024-25 freshman class.
