FROM THE 19TH HOLE
- One Kashima has impressed in both events thus far this season to head into the Evie Odom Invitational in the No. 1 spot for the Ospreys. She notched not only her first top-25 finish, but also her first top-10 finish and first tournament under par of her collegiate career at Furman.
- Casilda Allendesalazar is the third player to average better than 75.00 so far on the season, as she enters the second spot this weekend. The Central Michigan transfer looks to continue her solid play after playing in both tournaments to start the year.
- Cai brings her experience into the lineup with her third start of the season as a senior. The All-ASUN selection looks to get back on track with a nice bounce-back opportunity in early October.
- Helen Zhou will make her UNF debut this weekend in her second year with the Ospreys. She transferred in from Idaho before the 2022-23 season and will be playing for the first time with the team at Old Dominion.
- Washburn rounds out the group heading to Virginia Beach looking to put up her best performance of the season. Her low 18-hole score has been 75 twice with the latest one in the final round of Lady Paladin.
