RADFORD LINEUP
The Highlanders will take the same lineup (Conner Hayden, Ryan Rettberg, Tanner Carbaugh, Myles Creighton and Nick Brediger) that prevailed in a three-hole playoff to claim the Middleburg Bank Intercollegiate. The team victory was Radford's first of the season and second in three years.
THE FIELD
The Liberty Spring Invitational will be the last tournament the Highlanders compete in before the conference tournament. The 19-team field boasts five Top-100 golf programs, headlined by No. 10 Oklahoma and No. 19 North Carolina. Radford enters the tournament No. 95 in the country. The Highlanders and the host Flames are two of five Big South teams competing in Amherst. Campbell, High Point and Longwood are also entered.
THE COURSE
Poplar Grove is the final design of golf legend Sam Snead. Located in Central Virginia, the championship layout features rolling terrain, natural streams and lakes, and sweeping mountain views. Bent grass greens, tees and fairways will ensure superior playing conditions for the tournament.
UP NEXT
Radford sets its sights on the 2015 Big South Men's Golf Championship, which will be held April 20-22 at The Patriot Golf Club in Ninety-Six, S.C.
