Garcia and Geber will join LT Harris in the signing class for the Falcons, after Harris signed earlier this year. The pair will join Ethan Irvine and Andrew Lee, both from Canada, as international student-athletes on the roster.
“We’re thrilled to finalize our incoming Freshmen for the class of 2025 with Filip and Pedro”, said Head Coach John Powers. “Both students will come in with impressive resumes, are well-travelled and can move the golf ball at a high level. Their enthusiasm for a potential opportunity at BGSU stood out every step of the way as we navigated this process. Along with LT Harris and our returning student athletes, there is a true passion for the game of golf and a deep appreciation for the Bowling Green community.”
