MALIBU, California – Pepperdine fans, who would you put on the Mount Rushmore of Pepperdine women's golf?
 
Over the summer and fall, Pepperdine Athletics examined the best Waves ever to wear a particular number on their jersey or cap. Since that only covered eight of our programs, we have turned our attention to highlighting some of the all-time greats for the sports that don't utilize numbers. We are also giving our fans the opportunity to help pick the best of the best for each of these programs.
 
A blue-ribbon panel has created an overall list of what might be considered the most-accomplished women's golf student-athletes in program history. Please read through the names and highlights, listed alphabetically, and then click on the "VOTE!" graphic to be taken to the ballot, where you can select the four most-deserving student-athletes that you believe belong on the program's Mount Rushmore.
