RALEIGH, N.C. - NC State will host the second annual Wolfpack Spring Open this Saturday and Sunday, April 14-15, at Lonnie Poole Golf Course located on State's Centennial Campus.
The format will feature 18 holes each day with tee times beginning at Nos. 1 and 10 on Saturday at 8:30 a.m., and Sunday at 8 a.m.
After a runner-up finish last week for the Wolfpack at the River Landing Intercollegiate in Wallace, N.C., the starting five has not changed. The lineup includes Albin Choi, Mark McMillen, Chad Day, Mitchell Sutton and Graham Baillargeon.
State will tee off on Saturday alongside Louisville and Connecticut at No. 1 from 9:15-9:51 a.m.
State will also have four individuals playing: James Chapman, Andrew Decker, William Herring and Hunter Howell.
The individuals will all go off No. 10 the same time as the starting five will begin their round.
The course has been reconfigured to a par 72 layout now that No. 3 has been changed to a par 5, and the length from the competition tees remains at 7,358 yards.
This year's field features 17 teams: Army, Binghamton, Connecticut, Drexel, East Carolina, Francis Marion, George Mason, James Madison, Lamar, Louisiana-Monroe, Louisville, Loyola (Md.), Middle Tennessee State, Navy, NC State, Troy and Valparaiso.
Richmond (+14) won the inaugural event last spring by five shots over Lamar. North Carolina placed third, and the Wolfpack was fourth.
Lamar's MJ Daffue earned individual honors at 3-under 139, winning by five shots.
