CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Oregon State women's golf team looks to continue a strong spring season when it competes at the Lady Buckeye Spring Invitational on Saturday and Sunday in Columbus, Ohio.
The Beavers opened the spring with a fifth-place showing at the Westbrook Spring Invitational and followed that with a third-place effort at the Meadow Club Women's Intercollegiate, a fourth-place mark at the Entrada Classic and a fifth-place finish at the Anuenue Spring Break Classic.
FIELD (14): Oregon State, Illinois, Indiana, Indianapolis, Kent State, Maryland, Michigan State, Minnesota, Ohio State, Penn State, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Toledo and Washington.

BEAVERS' LINEUP: Oregon State will go with a lineup of senior Susie Cavanagh, junior Olivia Benzin, sophomores Mari Nishiura and Nicole Schroeder, and freshmen Amanda Minni and Ellie Slama.
FORMAT: Two-day, 54-hole tournament with 36 holes on Saturday and 18 holes on Sunday. The top-four individuals from each six-member team with the lowest scores for each 18-hole round constitute the scoring members for that given round.
