The Bulldogs will square off against 14 teams at the talent-laden, two-day competition
SEVIERVILLE, Tenn. -- The Samford University men's golf team is set to compete in its second team tournament of the 2015 spring season this week as the Bulldogs will square off against 14 talented opponents at the Third Annual Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate being held at the par-72, 6,928-yard Sevierville Golf Club.
Play is scheduled to begin Monday at 7:30 a.m. (CDT) with a shotgun start. Day one will feature 36 holes on the River Course. The tournament will conclude Tuesday as the teams begin with shotgun start at 9 a.m., again on the River Course. The final 18 holes will be played at a par-72 and 6,907 yards.
The field for the Third Annual Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate will consist of the following 14 teams: Samford, host-school Tennessee Tech, Arkansas State, Carson-Newman, Detroit, Eastern Kentucky, Evansville, Jacksonville State, Longwood, Murray State, Southern Illinois, Tennessee State, UT Martin, West Georgia and Wright State.
Last week, Samford played host to the 2015 Samford Intercollegiate and the final round of play was rained out Tuesday as incessant thunder storms rolled through the metro Birmingham, Alabama area.
The Bulldogs carded identical scores of 301 in the opening two rounds of play to finish fourth at the 10-team event with a total score of 602. Samford's fourth-place tally proved to be its best of the 2014-15 campaign.
So far this season, the Bulldogs have improved in each and every tournament that they've played. Samford's 2014-15 finishes so far have been 14th, 12th, 12th, ninth, eighth and fourth.
In their fourth-place tally at the Samford Intercollegiate, the Bulldogs' Robert Adams posted a team-best, 36-hole score of 2-over-par 146 (74-72) and finished in fifth place. He ended the event just four strokes behind co-leaders Casey Fernandez (72-70=142) and Hayes Weathersby (74-68=142), both of Southern Miss.
Samford sophomore Ashton Nix finished among the top-10 players in the tournament. The Bulldogs' talented native of Auburn opened Monday's competition with a first-round score of 1-under-par 71 before closing out the tournament with a 76. Nix finished just five strokes out of first place.
Fellow sophomore Garrett Moores tallied a two-round total of 152 (79-73) and concluded the tournament tied for 20th place in the event.
Rounding out Samford's countable team scores were Austin Jackson (77-80=157) and Ivan Truss (80-81=161). Junior Mac Hennessy competed as an individual and turned in a two-round tally of 156 (74-82). The Bulldogs' Chris Clouser and Jake Miller also played as individuals and carded scores of 163 (80-83) and 172 (87-85), respectively.
