"The Cougar Classic is always a fun opening event for us," said UCF head coach Emily Marron. "The course is always in great shape, and it tests us against the top teams in the country right away. We played well here last year and are building off that momentum here."

UCF will be joined in the Cougar Classic by a stacked field of teams, headlined by No. 11 Florida State, No. 21 Kentucky and No. 23 Ole Miss. In total, 15 of the 18 teams participating in the event advanced to an NCAA Regional last year.
