TUCSON - Arizona's women's golf team will play its final tournament of the fall season this weekend, Oct. 26-28, at the UNC Wilmington Landfall Tradition. The three-round, 54-hole event will be played at the Country Club of Landfall on the Jack Nicklaus Course (par 72, 6,138 yards). Daily tee times begin at 8:30 a.m. ET.

The tournament field includes Duke, Florida State, Iowa State, Michigan State, Mississippi, UNC Greensboro, UNC Wilmington, N.C. State, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Purdue, South Carolina, Texas Tech and Wake Forest.

Arizona's lineup will remain constant, including sophomores Manon Gidali, Kendall Prince and Andrea Vilarasau and freshmen Janie Jackson and Anna Kim. The same lineup won both the Mason Rudolph Championship and the Windy City Collegiate Classic and finished fourth at the Stanford Intercollegiate earlier this season.

In the current polls, Arizona is ranked No. 3 by Golfstat.com (10/24), No. 5 by Golf World/WGCA (10/8) and No. 4 by Golfweek.com (10/21). The squad holds a stroke average of 73.25 and is led by Gidali's individual 73.11 stroke average.

In late September, the Wildcats opened the season with a win at the Mason Rudolph Championship behind a tied for second-place finish from Prince. With a seventh-place finish, Jackson led the Cats to a win at the Windy City Collegiate in early October. Last weekend, the Wildcats rallied from eighth place to fourth on the final day of competition at the Stanford Intercollegiate. Both Gidali and Prince collected top-20 finishes.
