About the Course 
The par 72, 6,208-yard Kapolei Golf Club was designed by architect Ted Robinson, who is best known for his use of water features and referred to as the "King of Waterscapes," which is very visible at Kapolei. Kapolei's elevated greens, 80 bunkers and five lakes provide delightful tactical challenges. All of greens are visible from tee ground, and Kapolei's wide fairways and generous greenside chipping areas deliver a high level of overall playability for golfers of all levels.

Team UVU 
Competing for team UVU this week will be Abbey Porter, Caylyn Ponich, Chloe Jang, Maria Ortiz, and Pati Uluave. Millie Terrion will be competing as an individual.
