WEST POINT, Miss. - Middle Tennessee women's golf is nearing the end of its Fall 2018 season, but not before it tees off Sunday at the Magnolia Invitational hosted by Mississippi State and Ole Miss.

The Blue Raiders are playing in the competition - held at the Par 72, 6,320-yard Old Waverly Golf Club - for the first time and enter the Invitational ranked 44th nationally by Golfweek.

Only three teams in the field currently rank ahead of Middle Tennessee in No. 20 Auburn, No. 28 Oklahoma and No. 40 Ole Miss. They are joined in West Point by Kennesaw State, Virginia Tech, Memphis, Coastal Carolina, LSU, Mississippi State, East Tennessee State, Kansas State and C-USA foe Southern Miss.

The Blue Raider lineup will be led by reigning Conference USA Golfer of the Week Hanley Long, who is riding a streak of five consecutive Top 10 finishes dating back to last season and currently ranks No. 31 nationally according to Golfstat.

Behind her are sisters Caroline and Catherine Caudill, both of whom narrowly missed Top 10 finishes last week in Lexington, as well as sophomore Sophie Burks and graduate transfer Kailey Collier.

Middle Tennessee will tee off next to Kansas State and Memphis on the 10th tee. Collier will lead things off at 9:20 a.m. followed by Burks, Catherine Caudill, Caroline Caudill and Long.
