Cullowhee, N.C. – Western Carolina women's golf returns to action on Monday and Tuesday as the Catamounts tackle the par-72, 6,316-yard Forest Heights Country Club in Statesboro, Ga., at The Southern, hosted by former Southern Conference foe and three-time event defending champion, Georgia Southern.
 
The three-round, 54-hole tournament features two rounds of continuous play with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 8, followed by the third round on Tuesday, Sept. 9, again with a shotgun opening.
 
Live scoring for the tournament is available online through Golf Genius, with links available on the women's golf page at CatamountSports.com.
 
In addition to the Catamounts and the host Eagles, the 13-team field includes SoCon member Wofford, as well as golfers from Augusta University, Charleston Southern, Dartmouth, Eastern Michigan, Florida Gulf Coast, Georgia State, Jacksonville, James Madison, Seton Hall, and Tarleton State. Six individuals from five of the schools will add to the field.
