TUCSON, Ariz. -- The Arizona women's golf team added two members to the 2020-2021 squad on Wednesday. Yael Berger from Thun, Switzerland and Tucson local Maya Benita have signed on to join the Wildcats in the fall of 2020.
 
Berger is currently ranked 482nd in the World Golf Amateur Rankings. She has 13 top-10 finishes in the past two years, highlighted by a win at the 2018 Swiss National Juniors. Her other accolades include a third-place finish at the Girls' British Open Amateur Championship and a top-20 at the Neuchatel Ladies Championship.
 
Benita is a Tucson native and is a senior at Catalina Foothills High School. She has 13 top-10 finishes in 15 JGAA events this year, and finished tied for second at the State Junior Golf Championship. 
 
"I'm very excited about the two commits," said head coach Laura Ianello. "Yael is a force to be reckoned with on an international stage, having won multiple events over in Europe. Maya Benita is a local talent, an Arizona rising star with a powerful move who has continued to improve her game. Both of them are going to be phenomenal additions to our women's golf team."
