Blacksburg, Va. – The Virginia Tech men’s golf team travels to southern Virginia to compete in the Primland Collegiate Invitational. The tournament, in its second year, is hosted by Wake Forest at the Primland Resort in Meadows of Dan, Virginia.

The event will be played at the par 72, 7,057 yard Primland course. The Hokies finished fourth in last year’s inaugural event.

The nine team event boasts a strong field, drawn primarily from the Mid-Atlantic region. Pepperdine is the lone West Coast team in the tournament. Tech joins North Carolina and host Wake Forest as ACC schools in the tournament. Wake Forest will also play a second, non-counting, “B” team in the event.

Logan Yates, a fresman from Ruckersville, Virginia, moves into the No. 1 position for the Hokies in just his second collegiate event. He led Tech by finishing tied for 18th at VCU last week.

Drew Johnson, a junior from nearby Oak Ridge, North Carolina, will play second for the Hokies. He finished in a tie for 30th at VCU. Ryan Mondy, a junior from Blacksburg, Virginia will play in the third position for Tech.

Joey Lane, a junior from Great Falls, Virginia, will play in the fourth spot for Tech. He was fourth on the team in scoring last season. Maclain Huge, a senior from Lovettesville, Virginia, will play fifth for Tech. The reigning Virginia State Amateur champion was third on the team in scoring last season.

The teams will play 36 holes on Monday and the final round wil be played Tuesday morning. Live scoring will be available on Hokiesports.com via a link from Golfstat.com.
