This summer Clau won the Spanish Junior International and the Grand Prix of Chiberto and Beautell competed in the European Individuals and placed seventh in the Spanish Amateur.
Head coach Dianne Dailey is excited about her team's prospects this year. "We have a lot more depth than we had in the past. We have one to five spots that can shoot 75 or better when they play. Any one has a chance to play it just depends whose hot that week. In the past we have always relied on one person to help carry the team and this year I think it will be an even and balanced effort."
