Arkansas used its experience of playing desert golf from its two previous years in the NCAA Championships at Grayhawk Golf Club – Raptor Course to post an opening-day score of 281 (+1) and is in tied for second place with Pepperdine after 18 holes, one shot off leader Georgia Tech.
What already looked to be a strong opening day for Arkansas at the NCAA men s golf tournament got better and better as the last of the 30 teams finished up at Grayhawk Golf Club late Friday.
If the University of Arkansas is to make a title run at the NCAA men s golf championships over the next six days, the Razorbacks will have to lean on their veterans and Latin American players.
