Aces play at Redbird Invitational on Sunday and Monday
 On the heels of a stellar 2015-16 campaign that featured a team victory at the Braun Intercollegiate, the University of Evansville women’s golf team will open up the 2016-17 season at the Redbird Invitational.
Play begins with 36 holes on Sunday before the final round of 18 will take place on Monday at Weirbing Golf Club in Normal, Ill. Par stands at a 72 while the yardage checks in at 6,090. An 8:30 a.m. shotgun start will commence the action each day.
Evansville is one of 14 participating teams in a field that also includes: Ball State, Boston College, Bowling Green, Bradley, Butler Drake, Florida Gulf Coast, Illinois State, Loyola-Chicago, Northern Illinois, Ohio, Southern Illinois and Western Illinois.
Senior Kayla Katterhenry is coming off of the best year in program history. As a junior, she finished with an average of 75.50 strokes per round while winning three events. She is also the defending champion of the Redbird Invitational. Katterhenry also notched a pair of 2nd place efforts, including a runner-up finish in the MVC Championship.
Maggie Camp and Giulia Mallmann finished second and third on the squad a season ago. Camp posted an 82.88 average in her 24 rounds last season. Her low round of 78 came twice in the MVC Championship.
Mallmann registered an 83.38 average in her sophomore campaign. Her top finish was a tie for 10th at the Braun Intercollegiate as she helped the Aces to the team victory.
