Cougars prep for first trip to Wolf Pack Classic
PROVO, Utah — BYU men’s golf is back in action at the Wolf Pack Classic in Reno, Nevada, at Hidden Valley Country Club, October 11-12.
BYU kicked off its 2021-22 campaign with a 19-shot victory at the William H. Tucker Invitational and followed up win with a sixth-place finish at the Paintbrush Invitational in windy conditions in Colorado.
“We’ve never played the Wolf Pack Classic before and they are forecasting cold, tough conditions,” said BYU head coach Bruce Brockbank. “Our goal is to step up and handle adversity better than we did last week. We need to play some great golf and recapture the momentum we had at the Tucker Invitational."
