Golfers Travel to NU ISU This Weekend
The KU golf team will travel to Nebraska and Iowa State this week- end.
The Hawkers finished their home season last Friday with a 12-3 victory over Kansas State at Lawrence Country Club.
Coach Jay Markley says the team is in good condition, but nowhere near the shape they must be in when they arrive at Boulder, Colorado, for the Conference Meet on May 19.
"We have two matches this weekend and one next weekend with Missouri and I feel the team will reach their peak at just about the right time for the conference meet," Markley said.
Last year the linksmen took second place in the conference behind powerful Oklahoma State. Markley believes the competition to be rougher this year than ever before.
"Almost every golf team in the Big Eight Conference this year has the potential to win at Boulder. But, when I say every team, that includes us too," Markley said.
