Men's Golf Summit League Championship Welcomes Mastodons on Sunday
4/27/2019 1:55:00 PM | Men's Golf
The Purdue Fort Wayne men's golf team is heading to the Summit League Championship this weekend, with the first of three rounds taking place on Sunday (April 28).
Event: Summit League Championship
Host: The Summit League
When: April 28-30 | 8 a.m. CT tee times Sunday, Monday and Tuesday
Where: Sand Creek Station Golf Course | Newton, Kansas
Par: 72
Yardage: 6,931
Live Results: BirdieFire
Competing Teams
All nine Summit League teams will compete: Denver, North Dakota, North Dakota State, Oral Roberts, Omaha, Purdue Fort Wayne, South Dakota, South Dakota State, and Western Illinois.
The Course
The course plays on the town's railroad history, and many holes are, as they say in Scotland, "hard by the cinders," continuing a century's old tradition of golf bordering railways. We have also recreated the famous Road Hole green on our 16th Hole, which once sat adjacent to a railway. Another replicates the famous "Redan" from North Berwick, Scotland. Other holes have characteristics of early American holes, which also fronted railways at one time. The 12th hole for example, is similar to the fourth at the National Golf Links of America, one of our early classics. The ninth features a small platform green; typical of early American courses while the green on the par 5 fourth has some wild contours, seldom built these days. This is the same course that hosted the women's golf Summit League Championship last weekend.
Mastodon Lineup
Zach Schroeder, Callahan Elzey, Eric Brinker, Clark Tiller and Josh Keating will be the group that competes at the Summit League Championship.
Last Time Out
The Mastodons finished fifth at the Wright State Invitational. Zach Schroeder won the tournament with a 67-69-136.
