Last April, the Idaho women’s golf team rallied from three strokes back to tie Sacramento State and send the Big Sky Championship to a playoff. The Vandals were nipped by two strokes on the four vs. four No. 18 playoff hole.
A year earlier, Idaho stymied a four-stroke Hornet comeback en route to its first Big Sky Championship since rejoining the conference in 2015 after a 19-year BSC hiatus.
This weekend, the Vandals return to the Boulder Creek Golf Course in Boulder, Nevada as the second-ranked team in the conference — according to coaches — in hopes they can usurp a red-hot 61st-ranked Sacramento State group.
