PROVO, Utah — 2016 conference champion BYU women’s golf seeks to defend its title, as the No. 27 Cougars will participate in the 2017 West Coast Conference Golf Championships held April 20-22 at Riverside Country Club.
The Cougars will compete alongside WCC foes No. 36 Pepperdine, Gonzaga, Santa Clara and San Francisco. Teams will play 54 holes over three days on the par-72 course.
At the 2016 WCC Golf Championships held at Blackhawk Country Club in Danville, California, BYU women's golf shot +20 to claim first place and put an end to Pepperdine's 14-year championship win streak. BYU alum Lea Garner and Rose Huang tied for second place individually, while Kendra Dalton tied for sixth place.
BYU women’s golf placed first in two regular season tournaments in the 2016-17 season, and finished second in six events, including the BYU at Entrada Classic. The Cougars return to Provo after taking third at the Dale McNamara Invitational last week.
