The Eagles make their first appearance in the Red Rocks Invitational at Oakcreek Country Club, an event that began in 2006.Â
The Eagles are coming off an 11th-place finish at the UNF Collegiate March 9. Alberte Thuesen tied for 14th to lead Georgia Southern, and it was the sophomore's eighth top-20 finish in nine career collegiate tournaments.Â
Ella Ofstedahl picked up her third career win at the Mercer Invitational to cap the fall and has finished in the top-10 in six of her last 12 collegiate events. She has eight top-5, 12 top-10 and 20 top-20 career finishes. Ofstedahl is playing a fifth season after the NCAA granted an extra year of eligibility to all spring sport student-athletes because of COVID-19.
Ofstedahl makes her 36th career start for the Eagles, while Abby Newton and Kaysie Harrelson will make their fifth career starts. Bell is in the lineup for the 11th time in her career, and Thuesen makes her 10th career start.
The Eagles tee off holes 5-8 in an 11:30 a.m. ET shotgun start Saturday.
Following the event, the Eagles play in the Chattanooga Classic at The Black Creek Club in Chattanooga, Tennessee, March 29-30.
