Huskers Primed for Desert Mountain Intercollegiate

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - The Nebraska men's golf team is ready to jump back into action after a two-week break in the schedule as they head south to compete in the annual Desert Mountain Intercollegiate this weekend. The two-day event will begin on Saturday, March 3 at the par-72, 7107-yard Outlaw Course. 

The Huskers will look to build momentum and improve the overall team score from the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate in Palm Desert, Calif. Junior captains Jace Guthmiller and Jackson Wendling will again lead the way for the NU squad in the No. 1 and 2 spots in the lineup, respectively. Guthmiller is coming off yet another team-leading score and aims to better his tied-for-25th place finish in the overall standings. Wendling is ready to get back on top of the team standings as well as he looks to improve on his performance at the Palm Desert tournament.

Junior Sean Song will occupy the No. 3 slot in the Husker lineup. Song is coming off a score of 228 and a tied-for-97th place finish at the recent tournament in California. Junior Dylan McCabe returns to the lineup in the No. 4 position after posting a score of 229 and a tied-for-103rd place finish at the previous invitational.

Sophomore Cameron Jones makes his way back into the lineup after posting the second best NU score (T-91st, 227) at the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate while competing as an individual. Jones will compete in the No. 5 slot. Freshman Daniel Pearson will also be traveling with the team and is set to compete in the individual spot.
