MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The West Virginia men’s golf team will return to action to compete in the Seminole Intercollegiate, hosted by Florida State, in Tallahassee, Fla., on Friday, Feb. 19, and Saturday, Feb. 20.
West Virginia is slated to compete in the event for the sixth straight season. The event will take place at the par-72, 6,965-yard Golden Eagle Country Club.
Joining the Mountaineers and No. 10 Florida State will be No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 13 Oklahoma State, No. 18 Duke, No. 25 Liberty, North Florida, USF, Virginia, Georgia Southern, Jacksonville, NC State, Florida Golf Coast, South Alabama, Troy, North Alabama and James Madison.
“We are grateful for another opportunity to compete, especially against another great field featuring several Top 25 teams,” WVU coach Sean Covich said. “The weather will be challenging for the first round with gusty winds out of the north. We will have to be ready for those conditions, but the guys should know this golf course fairly well, and I expect them to play well.”
Seniors Mark Goetz and Logan Perkins, junior Kurtis Grant, sophomore Trent Tipton and freshman Jackson Davenport will represent WVU for the second straight tournament. The top four scores will count towards West Virginia’s overall team score.
