Men’s Golf heads West for second tournament of the spring season

The Marshall University men’s golf team is back in action this weekend as the team heads into its second tournament of the spring season starting on Feb. 22 at Loyola Intercollegiate in Goodyear, Arizona.

The Herd is showcasing six players in the three-day, 54-hole event at Palm Valley Golf Course. The lineup is senior Ben Roeder, redshirt junior Cameron Root, redshirt junior Will Straub, junior Brad Plaziak, sophomore Kyle Mitchell and freshman Tyler Jones.

“We have one purpose going down to Phoenix,” Coach Matt Grobe said. “That is we try to give ourselves on the final day a chance to win the tournament and not come back and say this is another really fun trip.
