Louisiana part of 12-team field in three-day, 54-hole event
CHOUDRANT – The Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Golf team will make its long-awaited 2020-21 season debut on Sunday when it opens play at the Jim Rivers Intercollegiate at Squire Creek Country Club.
Â
First round action begins with 18 holes at 8 a.m., on the par-72, 7,070-yard course. The second round will begin at 8 a.m., on Monday with the final round of play in the 54-hole event set for Tuesday at 8 a.m. Live scoring will be available at GolfStat.com.
Â
Joining Louisiana and host Louisiana Tech in the 12-team field includes four Sun Belt Conference schools – Little Rock, South Alabama, Texas State and ULM – plus Abilene Christian, Central Arkansas, Houston Baptist, Lamar, UAB and Western Kentucky.
Â
Redshirt freshman Matt Weber and true freshman Jake Marler will each make their debut in a Ragin' Cajuns uniform with Peter Hinnant, Bjorn Gudjonsson and Cole Kendrick rounding out the lineup.
Â
When the Ragin' Cajuns tee off in Sunday's opening round, it will be their first round of play in a span of 201 days since completing the Border Olympics in Laredo, Texas on Feb. 25. Louisiana had its final four meets – including the 35th annual Louisiana Classics and Sun Belt Conference Championships – canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic with the Jim Rivers Intercollegiate being the first of three events scheduled for the fall.
Â
Louisiana is scheduled to compete in late September at the Graeme McDowell Intercollegiate (Sept. 29-30) in Birmingham, Ala., and the Intercollegiate at the Grove (Oct. 5-6) in College Grove, Tenn.,
