Texas A&M was selected to the 2018 NCAA Division I Women's Golf Austin Regional, held at the University of Texas Golf Club on May 7-9. The Aggies have reached the NCAA Regionals in each of the past 18 seasons.
Â
"It is an honor any time you are selected to NCAA Regionals," said Texas A&M head coach Trelle McCombs. "We are excited to be playing down the road in our home state, on a golf course that plays well to our strengths."
Â
The Aggies were an at-large selection, earning the No. 10 seed in the Austin Region. Texas A&M is one of 18 teams, along with six individuals, selected to play the par 72 / 6,341-yard course for the 54-hole, three-day tournament. The Aggies are one of 17 schools to be selected to NCAA Regionals in each of the last 18 seasons.
Â
The top six team finishers, and top three individuals not on an advancing team, continue on to the NCAA Championships, held from May 18-23 at Karsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla. Texas A&M has advanced to the NCAA Championships in nine of the past 14 seasons, and six of 10 seasons in the Trelle McCombs era.
