Palm Desert—The UC Riverside Women's Golf Team defends it 2015 title this weekend in the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate October 1-2 at the Classic Club (live scoring).
Â
Earlier this week, the Highlanders finished fifth in their first event of the fall season—the Rose City Collegiate in Portland, Oregon. Jakeishya Le (+6) posted the top result on the team tying for 13th, and Paris Griffith (+7) finished tied for 17th, one shot ahead of newcomer Hana Furuichi (+8) in 21st (story).
Â
In last year's Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate, Hannah Facchini led UCR in claiming its first of three titles in a historic 2015-16 season. Facchini's 217 (+1) three-round total was good enough for a second place finish in what was last season's opening event (story).
Â
Le, Griffith, Facchini, Yuri Ahn and Furuichi will compete on the UCR A team. Haley Wian, Haley White, Krista Twet, Tina Nagai, and Julia Sander make up the UCR B Team, while Emily Keeler will swing it as an individual for the Highlanders.
Â
"I feel like the team is ready to have a great performance," said Head Coach Mary Ritchie. "We love the course, and our skill as a whole, is looking better than ever."
The 11-team field features three other Big West schools. The first two rounds begin Saturday with an 7:30 am PT shotgun start, with Sunday's final round beginning at the same time (pairings).
Â
The Classic Club's 6,112 yard course is hosting the tournament at par 72. See the Classic Club's Flyover Tour.
