The Eagles will battle 12 other teams, including three ranked in the top 50 of GolfStat's latest team rankings as they try to make a move for postseason positioning. This event will be played in Gastonia, North Carolina, at the Gaston Country Club. The course is the home course of Archer and Avery Price, who both hail from Gastonia and attended Gaston Day High. It will be the first time the brothers will play in a tournament together.
