BROWNS SUMMIT, N.C. — One week removed from its annual home tournament, the LSU women’s golf team travels here Friday through Sunday for its first appearance in the prestigious Bryan National Collegiate event.
This is the sixth annual event, co-hosted by Wake Forest and UNC-Greensboro, at the Bryan Park Course (par 72, 6,064). Joining the hosts and LSU in the field are: Auburn, Duke, Florida State, Furman, Georgia, Louisville, Memphis, Mississippi State, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Purdue, South Carolina, Tennessee, Tulsa and Vanderbilt.
The Tigers are coming off a Lady Gamecock Classic two weeks ago in which LSU was able to play just the first round before the final two rounds were washed out. The Tigers were tied for 11th in the one round of competition.
LSU will go with a lineup of Vicky Meyer, Isabel Dornellas, Brooke Shelton, Devon Day and senior Erin Sarver, who will make her first start of the spring. Meyer, the freshman from Brazil who joined LSU at the start of the spring season, has one top 10, shooting three rounds of 74 in the Lady Puerto Rico Invitational in her first start.
After this event, LSU returns home for the LSU/Cleveland Golf Classic at the University Club in Baton Rouge. A college-am is scheduled for Thursday, April 3 and the 54-hole competition featuring 14 teams begins on Friday, April 4 and runs through Sunday, April 6. Admission is free to the public.
