NEW HAVEN, Conn.-On Monday, the Yale men's golf team is set to compete in the 6th-annual AutoTrader.com Collegiate Classic at Berkeley Hills Country Club. The tournament takes place in Duluth, Ga., and should be an exciting break from play in the Northeast for the Bulldogs.
The field includes many schools from the south, namely Chattanooga, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Middle Tennessee, UNC Greenboro and Ole Miss. Georgia State is hosting the event, while Lipscomb, a private, Christian, liberal-arts school in Nashville, is the reigning 2015 champion.
The starting lineup for the Bulldogs will be senior captain Li Wang, who is coming off his incredible ten-under, 60 round at the Macdonald Cup, junior Will Bernstein, sophomores Eoin Leonard and James Nicholas, and freshman Eric Hall. Junior Henry Cassriel will be participating as an individual.
Berkeley Hills County Club is a par-72, 6,694-yard course, with spectacular tree-lined fairways. Although it has never hosted a PGA tournament, the course has played host to many collegiate golf events through the years, including the AutoTrader.com.
Play begins for the Bulldogs at 8:30 sharp. Live score for the event can be found HERE.
