Men's Golf Gets Started at W&M's Golden Horseshoe Intercollegiate

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. – The University of Pennsylvania men's golf team is in 11th place after the first round at the Golden Horseshoe Invitational. The two-day, 54-hole event is being hosted by William & Mary on the par-71 Golden Horseshoe Golf Club course.
 
The 15 teams in the field, including two 'B' teams, were scheduled to play two rounds on Monday but couldn't finish the second round before darkness descended. They will complete the second round early on Tuesday, then play the third and final round immediately afterward.
