TROY, Alabama – The Troy women's golf team opens its fall schedule this weekend at the Mason Rudolph Championship at the Vanderbilt Legends Club's North Course. Play opens with 18 holes on Friday and continues with single rounds on Saturday and Sunday.
The Trojans return their entire lineup that finished second at the Sun Belt Conference Championship last season. Head coach Bart Barnes will send out a veteran lineup on the course the opening weekend with seniors Fátima Fernández Cano, Gabi Oubre' and Becca Horner joined by sophomores Bianca Lohbauer and Lindsey Harrison.
Troy won three team titles last season, including the Rebel Intercollegiate hosted by Ole Miss. Cano finished the year with one of the most impressive individual performances in the country as she won five tournaments and finished in the top six in eight of 10 regular season events.
Lohbauer finished the year strong as she tied for third at the Rebel Intercollegiate and led the Trojans with a fifth-place finish at the Sun Belt Championship.
The Trojans will be paired with Yale and Chattanooga and the pairing will tee off on the back nine beginning at 9:55 a.m.
