COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – The Tennessee Tech women's golf team will get back after it Monday morning, heading east for the Starmount Forest Fall Classic in Greensboro, N.C. The two-day event will take place at the Starmount Forest Country Club and be hosted by UNCG.
STARMOUNT FOREST FALL CLASSIC: 54 holes (36 Monday, 18 Tuesday), located at the par-72, 6,118-yard Starmount Forest Country Club in Greensboro, N.C. Teams will start teeing off each day at 8:00 a.m. CT shotgun start.
GOLDEN EAGLE LINEUP: Competing for the Golden Eagles are junior Allyson Dunn, senior Whitney Robertson, sophomore Hollee Sadler, redshirt freshman Shelby Johnson, and sophomore Lindsay Miller.
THE COMPETITION: The 11-team field consists of host UNCG, Boston, The Citadel, Marshall, N.C. A&T, Queens, Tennessee Tech, UNC Asheville, Virginia Tech, William & Mary and Winthrop, along with individuals from Radford.
THOUGHTS FROM COACH BROWN: "After a solid finish at Jacksonville State's event, we are ready to head to Greensboro to compete in the Starmount Classic. This is the first time we have ever competed in this event, so are we looking forward to participating and seeing the course. The women have generated some momentum both as a team and individually after the Chris Banister Fall Classic, so we will look to use that this week. We are excited to get going."
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: After a nice, third-place showing at the Chris Bannister fall classic, the Golden Eagles will aim for the top spot in their trip to Greensboro. Allyson Dunn tied for third in Gadsden, Ala. last week, and will look to build off that momentum for another top-five finish this week.
