Murfreesboro, Tenn. – A youthful Middle Tennessee Women's Golf squad takes the course for the first time in 2019-20 on Monday when the Blue Raiders tee off in the Mercedes-Benz Collegiate Championship in Knoxville to open the 19th season of the program's history.
Head Coach Chris Adams returns some familiar faces as the new season begins, with 2018-19 regulars Sophie Burks, Caroline Caudill and Catherine Caudill back in the fold alongside junior Savannah Quick and sophomore Madison Smith.
A pair of true freshmen, Kentucky natives Molly Bebelaar and Taylor Edlin, round out Adams' 7-person roster that features no seniors and more underclassmen than upperclassmen.
Burks, both Caudills, Smith and Bebelaar will represent the Blue Raiders in the lineup at in-state rival Tennessee's season-opening home tournament at the Par 71, 5,900-yard Cherokee Country Club.
Middle Tennessee will face off against a trio of Conference USA foes in the 16-team field as they battle Charlotte, Southern Miss and UTSA in Knoxville.
The remainder of the field consists of host Tennessee, Augusta, Chattanooga, Eastern Kentucky, ETSU, Kent State, LSU, Maryland, Memphis, Mercer, South Dakota State and Tulane.
The Blue Raiders will tee off on holes four, five and six in a 7:30 a.m. CT shotgun start alongside Charlotte and Chattanooga as the field has 36 holes of play on the schedule for day one.
"I am looking forward to getting the season started and I think the players are ready to play and looking forward to good, hot weather too," Adams said. "The course is playing firm and fast, a little bit shorter than it did last year when we finished second here."
