Yang Liu of Chengdu, China, signed a national letter of intent to play for the Rebels next year, joining Germany native Polly Mack, who committed to UNLV earlier this week.

Liu, who has played in several tournaments in the United States, won the first American Junior Golf Association she ever played in, placing first at the AJGA Tangelwood Junior All Star Tournament.

She’s also played in two USGA Girls Juniors tournaments and finished as the runner-up at the Future Champions World Championships.

Liu and Mack, a recent German National Team selection, are the eighth and ninth international players coach Amy Bush-Herzer has signed in her seven years with the Rebels.
