BYU GOLF READY FOR NATIONALS
SUNRIVER, Ore. (Monday, May 29, 2006) -- It's national championship time for the No. 8 ranked BYU men's golf team as they travel to Sunriver, Ore., with 29 other teams to decide the national champion.
Entering their third straight NCAA finals, the Cougars received the 10th seed in the tournament and will be paired with UCLA and Clemson for the first round. BYU tees off starting at 2:47 MST on Wednesday, May 31.
Tee-times were decided based on weather conditions. Typically the Crosswater Golf Club course has some frost on the ground in the morning, which is why the higher seeds are teeing off in the afternoon.
