UNLV will play at Texas State's Jim West Invitational Oct. 28 & 29 outside of San Antonio
LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com)Â -Â UNLV women's golf will be back on the course quickly for its final tournament of the fall, the 2018 Jim West Invitational, which begins Sunday, October 28 in San Marcos, Texas. The two-day 54-hole tournament is hosted by Texas State University and will take place on a Par-72, 6,185- yard course at Kissing Tree Golf Club just outside of San Antonio. Both days will begin with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. CT, with 36 holes being played on Sunday and the final round taking place Monday.
The Rebels are coming off a sixth place finish at their home-hosted Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown, where they turned in both the best single-round and tournament scores of the fall - a 5-under in the final round and a 1-under for the tournament. Sixth place was also the highest finish of the fall for the Scarlet and Gray.
At the showdown, UNLV had four players finish in the top-31 individually - led by sophomore and reigning Mountain West Player of the Year Polly Mack, who shot a 3-under 213 to finish in a tie for 16th. Senior Elizabeth Prior came in three strokes behind Mack at even to tie for 21st, while junior Natasia Kossacky tied for 27th at 1-over and senior Alyssa Getty placed tied for 31st at 2-over.
After the conclusion of the Jim West Invitational, the Scarlet and Gray will be off until February 11-12, when they will compete in the Battle at Boulder Creek tournament at Boulder Creek Golf Club to open the spring slate.
