SIU Director of Golf Justin Fetcho said he’s very happy with the schedule this year as the Salukis will also host a tournament this season.
“I am very excited about this tournament schedule. First and foremost, I am very excited that we get to host a great event at a great golf course in Dalhousie Golf Club,” he said. “That will be a very special event not just for us, but for all of the teams involved. Secondly, I love the diversity of the schedule as we get to travel all across the country to play in high level events. We want to compete against the best competition possible and I think the schedule this year shows that we are continuing to strive toward that goal. I look forward to this schedule preparing our team well throughout the regular season but more importantly, preparing us to perform at a high level in the postseason.”
