The Texas Tech women's golf team seeks its best performance of the year beginning today through Sunday when it competes in the Big 12 women's championships in Manhattan, Kan. The Red Raiders are one of six Big 12 schools ranked in the top 50 in the nation by golfweek.com.
Tech is led by senior Jennifer Newhouse and junior Stephanie Dukes, each finishing the regular season with top-20 finishes. Dukes leads the team with a 77 stroke average while Newhouse is second at 77.4. No. 4 Oklahoma State is favored to win its third straight Big 12 title, but should get competition from No. 5 Texas.
"We finally have a healthy team now," Tech head coach Stacey Totman said. "I feel good about our confidence level and the way we are playing heading into the Big 12 tournament."
