The competing teams will play 36 holes Tuesday beginning at 7:30 a.m. HST, followed by 18 holes Wednesday to wrap up the tournament.

The Wildcats are looking to improve from their 14th-place finish at the Lady Gator Invitational in Gainesville, Fla. last week. Eva Gessner led Kentucky by shooting 18-over par to take 26th place.
