Golf heads to Sacramento

The No. 7 Arkansas Lady'Back golf team was selected Monday for the NCAA West Regional Championship hosted by Sacramento State with play starting on May 8.

The team has not played the course this year, so the Lady'Backs will have to gather information ahead of time and make use of its practice time before the match, Arkansas head coach Shauna Estes-Taylor said.

"We haven't played Lincoln Hills, but we will try and gather as much information about the course as we can," Estes-Taylor said. "We'll prepare as we have all year long and see what happens."

Estes-Taylor said she used a strategic element that ended up not working out in making the schedule this year as the team played at both hosting courses for the Central and East Regional, but the team did not play the West course.

Arkansas is coming off a program-best second place finish at the SEC Championship and will look to have the same attitude it has all year long as the team looks to advance to the NCAA Championship, Estes-Taylor said.

"Our goal is to try and go out there and win the tournament," Estes-Taylor said. "That's our goal in every event we play and that strategy won't change. I know they advance the top eight, but if we strive to win we should advance without any problems."
