The Arizona women’s golf team collected their first team win of the season Tuesday, when they finished in first place at the Rebel Beach Invitational in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The defending national championships were able to hold off host school UNLV to claim the victory by four strokes.

Much like in the Wildcats’ first tournament of the season a couple weeks ago in California, adverse weather conditions had a distinct impact on play over the duration of the two-day event. No team in the 16-school field shot a combined score under par, with Arizona’s team score of 14-over par good enough to seal the win in 40-degree weather and winds of up to 20 MPH.
