The teams will now play 36 holes on Sunday and wrap up the tournament with 18 on Monday.
The Salukis have finished ninth out of nine in the last two tournaments and will look to play their best golf at the best time.Â
The Salukis will send Janie Samattiyadeekul, Allie Santos, Kayla Sayyalinh, Calli Smith and Secilia Ho to compete.
