The UIS women's golf team will host its first regular season home competition since 2022 next week when the Dan Salisbury Memorial Collegiate Invitational tees off at Piper Glen Golf Club. The two-day event runs Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 15-16, and features three rounds of stroke play.

UIS will welcome a competitive all-GLVC field, including Quincy, Maryville, McKendree, Drury, Truman State, and Rockhurst. The invitational provides an early fall test against conference opponents that the Prairie Stars will see again later in the season.

Last Time Out
The Stars opened their season last week at the UIndy Fall Invitational, where they placed 9th out of 12 teams. UIS finished ahead of Quincy, Rockhurst, and Drury, while ending the tournament 10 strokes behind Maryville and just seven strokes back of Lewis.

Veterans Elaine Grant and Lia Rody led the way, tying for 12th at six-over through 54 holes. Grant's closing-round four-under 68 set a new UIS single-round record, while Rody provided steady scoring across all three rounds. The tournament also marked the UIS debuts of three newcomers in the Stars' lineup.
