MG: Valspar Collegiate

[Mama_Bull]

The Valspar Collegiate has the strongest field in Men's Golf this year. The individual winner gains entry into the PGA Valspar tourney in 2016. A good showing here and USF could regain into a top 10 ranking

 

Monday, 3/23 Teams play tworounds.

Tuesday, 3/24 Final round

Note: We are attending on 3/24. Because it is being played on a private GC, The Floridian, we needed to have the USF golf coach email our names to them in order to gain access to the course as a guest. So, if anybody wants to attend, make sure you do the same.

Play has started. At the moment, USF is in 1st place at -8, playing holes 6-9.

 

Note. USF brought 7 players to this tourney. Two of them are playing as individuals (A Olsen and R Fricker), because a team can only have five players competing.

Ouch, Chase took an EIGHT on the par 4 18th. What do you call that, a quadruple bogie?

It's called a van de Velde.

Yes.

I wonder how the weather is there, since it was raining pretty much all morning in the Tampa area.

This field is comparable to the NCAA final eight.

A top three finish for USF would be excellent.

It seems like the USF coach is still trying to find the "fifth" man to compete for us down the stretch. I'm glad to see the other two guys getting some quality competition, as one of them might be in the starting lineup next time. A Olsen was an AA JUCO player of the year, and has a lot of potential.

When I saw MG in the heading, I thought it was thread about Matt Grothe.  LOL  Good luck Men's Golf.

USF is alone in 3rd place, with the first round almost completed.

They were scheduled to play two rounds today, but I presume they will be able to complete the three round tourney tomorrow, if the weather is good.
