Follow @RadfordWGolf

BOONE, N.C. – The Radford women's golf team looks to carry some momentum to Boone, N.C., and compete in the Hound and Ears Intercollegiate, which starts on Monday and ends on Tuesday.

TOURNAMENT INFORMATION
Name: Hound and Ears Intercollegiate
Course (par/yardage): Hound Ears Club (Par 72/6,049 yards)
Location: Boone, N.C.
Time: 10:30 a.m. (Monday) | 9:30 a.m. (Tuesday)

TEAMS PARTICIPATING
Appalachian State (Host), Gardner-Webb, Longwood, Radford, Wofford and William & Mary

TOURNAMENT FORMAT
The 36-hole tournament will begin on Monday at 10:30 a.m., with one round of play. The final round will be on Tuesday at 9:30 a.m., with a shotgun start.

LAST TIME OUT
The Radford women's golf team bested Presbyterian, 4&1, in the final round of the Blue Hose Match Play and earned a third place last Tuesday afternoon. The third place finish is the best finish for Radford in a match play competition.

WORKING WELL UNDER PRESSURE
With Beatriz Mosquera Quintas winning her match, 4&2, and Kasidy Beckel dropping her match, Radford's fate relied on the middle matches. Five holes were left to play and every match was either even or 1UP. Natalie Welsh earned a par on the 18^th hole in order to win her match and put the Highlanders up, 2&1. Sidney Walker was 2UP with two holes left to play, but managed to squeak out a par with a 45-foot shot off the fringe to close out her match and lead Radford to its match-clinching third point. Riko Nagai was 1UP with one hole remaining, but was pulled off the course due to the end of the match.
