COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – The Tennessee Tech women's golf team will wrap up its fall season in style, making a visit in-state for the Memphis Intercollegiate at Ridgeway Country Club in Germantown, Tenn. from Oct. 17-18.
MEMPHIS INTERCOLLEGIATE: 54 holes (36 Monday, 18 Tuesday), located at the par-71, 6,105-yard Ridgeway Country Club in Germantown, Tenn. Teams will begin action on Monday with tee times starting at 8:15 a.m. CT.
GOLDEN EAGLE LINEUP: Competing for the Golden Eagles are sophomore Hollee Sadler, senior Whitney Robertson, junior Allyson Dunn, senior Lydia Triplett and redshirt freshman Arianna Clemmer.
THE COMPETITION: The 13-team field consists of host Memphis, Cal State Fullerton, Chattanooga, FIU, Houston Baptist, IUPUI, Missouri State, Murray State, Samford, South Alabama, Tennessee Tech, UAB, Western Kentucky.
THOUGHTS FROM COACH BROWN: "We're looking forward to going to Memphis for a tournament we've never played in. Ridgeway is a great golf course and it is very similar to a couple of courses we've already played at this year. It should set up pretty well for the women. We've had a pretty successful fall, especially with the win a couple of weeks ago, but I know the girls are ready to go and finish off the fall on a high note."
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: The Golden Eagles head to their final event of the 2016-17 fall season and will look to close out on a high note by matching their output from two weeks ago, a tournament win in Greensboro, N.C. A veteran group will head to Memphis, making the team's first ever appearance in the event under the leadership of head coach Polk Brown.
