The reigning national championship Washington women’s golf team fell right back into its match play flow as it defeated No. 1 seed Stanford 4 and 1 Tuesday at the East Lake Cup in Atlanta. The Huskies, who were the No. 4 seed, will take on Duke in Wednesday’s final match.

Washington is no stranger to match play as it earned the national title last season playing in the format and the Huskies clearly know how to keep it exciting as three of the five in the lineup carded eagles during the day. UW finished fourth during the individual stroke play round on Monday and had finished 35 strokes behind the Cardinal, which earned the top seed.
