Tournament Field
Little Rock is one of 15 teams among the Bama Beach Bash field and is one of five Sun Belt teams competing, joined by Appalachian State, South Alabama, Texas State and ULM. The Trojans, ranked No. 150 in the latest GolfStat team rankings, are one of nine schools among the Top-150, led by Texas State (No. 65), South Alabama (No. 67), South Dakota State (No. 71) and Central Arkansas (No. 83) in the top-100. Southern Illinois (No. 107), ULM (No. 110), UAB (No. 123) and Murray State (No. 131) are also among the top-150.
Trojan Lineup
Little Rock's lineup will have some changes from the UAB Spring Invitational earlier this week with
Kellie Gachaga and
Agatha Alesson sitting in the numbers one and two spots after top-20 finishes earlier this week.
Malena Austerslaatt will play the number three position, followed by
Sydney Scraba and
Viktoria Krnacova.
Tilde Bocker will compete as an individual.
Last Time Out
Little Rock notched a pair of top-20 individual showings at the weather-shortened UAB Spring Invitational earlier this week in Birmingham.
Kellie Gachaga and
Agatha Alesson both registered career-best tournament finishes as Gachaga tied for 13th (9-over 153) and Alesson tied for 19th (12-over 156) among the 63-player field. The duo paced Little Rock to a seventh-place finish among the 11-team field at 55-over 631, the Trojans' fifth top-10 team finish of the season.
Back to Bama
Little Rock is getting familiar with the state of Alabama this season as this weekend's event will mark the Trojan's fourth tournament in the Yellowhammer State in 2020-21. Little Rock opened the year with a sixth-place showing at the South Alabama Intercollegiate in Mobile, then finished 10th at the Hoover Invitational in Hoover, both of which were in September. The Trojans stayed in Alabama after the UAB Spring Invitational earlier this week after their seventh-place finish.
Going Low
Freshman
Agatha Alesson recorded a new personal low round Monday at the UAB Spring Invitational, firing an even-par 72 through the first 18 holes. She adds her name to the list for 2020-21 as five of the six Trojans have recorded at least one round of par-or-better on the year, led by
Malena Austerslaatt's three. She and
Kellie Gachaga also became the third and fourth players to record a top-20 individual finish this season.
