STATESBORO – The Georgia Southern men's golf program will host the Bash in the Boro, a team tournament, Oct. 19-20, at Georgia Southern University Course in Statesboro.
Augusta, Appalachian State, Francis Marion, Troy, Western Kentucky and Wofford are slated to compete in the event along with the Eagles. The practice round will be Oct. 18, and the teams will play 36 holes Oct. 19, and 18 holes Oct. 20. Six student-athletes will compete in the lineup for each team, and the lowest four scores from each round will count in the team score.
Teams will be grouped in two groups of three in order to reduce contact tracing.
"I am very excited for the team to be able to continue our fall season and compete in Statesboro," said Georgia Southern coach Carter Collins. "We are also excited to compete in a team event at the Georgia Southern University Course, our first in program history. This has been an interesting few months, and we are grateful and thankful to continue competing. The team has been working hard to prepare for whatever is next, and the Bash in the Boro event will be a good challenge for us to continue our progressions."
