The Cowgirls are coming off a strong start to the season at the UVU Hobble Creek Classic where they finished eighth against a competitive 18 team field. The duo of Kyla Wilde and Samantha Hui led the Cowgirls to their top ten finish after finishing tied for 17^th and 21^st respectively. Jadan Gonzalez also made an impact in her first tournament in the Brown and Gold finishing tied for 34^th.

Wyoming will be in for a test in their second tournament of the season as they are set to go up against a very competitive 19 team field.
