THIS WEEK
The Utah Men's golf team will be competing in their third and final tournament of the month when they travel up to Seattle University to compete in the Redhawk Invitational. The two-day tournament will begin Monday, March 29 and end on Tuesday, March 30. It will take place at Chambers Bay Golf Course in Tacoma, Wash.
 
THE FIELD
Utah will compete among a field of 15 teams which include Boise State, Fresno State, Gonzaga, Idaho, Oregon State, Sacramento State, Saint Martin's, Saint Mary's, San Francisco, Seattle U, UT Arlington, Utah Valley, Washington and Western Washington.

UTAH'S LINE-UP
The Utes' five-man lineup will consist of senior Mitchell Schow, juniors Tristan Mandur and Blake Tomlinson, and freshmen Javier Barcos and Jesper von Reedtz.
 
COACHES THOUGHTS: Head Coach Garrett Clegg
"We have been playing solidly in our last three events and I am expecting us to come out ready to play. Chamber's Bay is a course that three of the five players in our line-up have played. The grass is similar to playing at Bandon Dunes and so our experience playing there will help us at Chambers. This is a confident group and I'm excited to get back on the course with them."

TOURNAMENT DETAILS
The Seattle U Redhawk Invitational is a two-day tournament consisting of 54 holes with 36 being played on the first day and the final 18 on the second. The event will take place on March 29 and 30 with players teeing off on both days at 9:00 a.m. MT with a shotgun start format.

LAST TIME OUT
On March 20 and the 21, the Utes competed in the NIT Invitational where they finished in ninth after shooting 7-under (857) through three rounds of play. The event was held at the Omni Tucson National Resort in Tucson, Ariz. where the Utes competed among a field of 18 teams. For the first time in his young career, Barcos led the team, shooting 6-under (210) to help him finish in a tie for 17th.
