“We are looking forward to competing at Stanford for Regionals next week,” head coach Lindsay Hulwick said. “This is the type of course that we can be successful on, and I’m looking forward to getting back to the course at practice this week. We have a few things to work on over the next week before we leave for Palo Alto.”
DU will be joined at the West Regional by USC, Arizona, Vanderbilt, Purdue, Stanford, Georgia, Baylor, Texas A&M, Pepperdine, LSU, South Carolina, Ohio State, Oregon, UNLV, California, Florida State, Miami, San Jose State, Harvard, Kent State, Northern Arizona, North Dakota State and Long Island.
