Utes head to Pacific Northwest to begin play on Monday
EUGENE, Ore. – The Utah men's golf team will head to the Pacific Northwest to begin competition at the 28th Annual Duck Invitational next Monday and Tuesday, March 27-28. The event will take place at Eugene Country Club.
Utah will be one of 15 total teams, which includes a total of five squads from the Pac-12 Conference. In addition to No. 10-ranked and tournament host Oregon, Arizona, Oregon State and Washington State will join the Utes as the teams competing from the Pac-12. Also included in the field is Boise State, Denver, Gonzaga, San Diego, No. 23 San Diego State, San Jose State, Seattle, UC Davis, Missouri-Kansas City and Wyoming.
Eugene Country Club will play at par-71 and 7,020 yards with 36 holes to be played on Monday and a final-round 18 holes to be played on Tuesday. First-round action will begin with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. PDT on Monday, while second-round action is set to begin later that afternoon at approximately 1:30 p.m. PDT. Tuesday's final round will also have a shotgun start beginning at 8:30 a.m. PDT.
Utah players will be paired alongside golfers from Oregon State, Washington State and Boise State in Monday's opening-round.
This will mark the seventh Duck Invitational that Utah has competed in since the 1989-90 season and the first since 2014-15. The Utes finished in sixth-place out of 15 teams the last time it was in Eugene. Former Utah golfer, Matt Johnson, won the inaugural Duck Invitational back in 1989.
Utah is coming off back-to-back top-10 performances, which included the Utes carding its best three-round score of the season last week at the ASU Thunderbird Invitational. The Utes tallied a final score of even-par (852) to better its previous season-low mark of 853, which was recorded at the Mark Simpson Invitational back on Sept. 26-27.
Senior Gentry Hicks led the way for the Utes last week, finishing in a tie for 20th-place in the event after carding a three-round score of 1-under par (68-71-73=212). It was Hicks' third top-20 finish of the season.
