Royal Oaks Intercollegiate
Royal Oaks Country Club | Dallas
The North Texas men's golf team returns to action to locally to compete in the Royal Oaks Intercollegiate at Dallas' Royal Oaks Country Club.
THE EVENT: The Royal Oaks Country Club will play at 7,068 yards, and will be a par-71 course for the tournament. The two-day event begins Monday and concludes on Tuesday. There will be a shotgun start at 8:15 a.m., on Sunday when the teams will play 36 holes, and a staggered shotgun start on Tuesday at 8:30 a.m., for the final 18 holes.
THE FIELD: There are 12 teams participating in the tournament: No. 11 Baylor, No. 40 Charlotte, No. 69 Iowa, Kansas State, No. 54 Kent State, No. 53 Liberty, Michigan, Nebraska, No. 56 New Mexico, North Texas, No. 6 SMU and UT San Antonio.
REPRESENTING UNT: Competing for the Mean Green will be Kristof Ulenaers, Lenny Bergsson, Viktor Forslund, Zak Karkaletsos and Alejandro Madariaga.
RESULTS: Live results will be posted on GolfStat.com. Full recaps from each day of competition will be posted on MeanGreenSports.com at the end of each day's play.
LAST TIME OUT: North Texas finished fourth at the Maridoe Intercollegiate, and was led by Ulenaers and Bergsson, who tied for 14th.
INTERNATIONAL FLAVOR: The Mean Green feature seven international players this year, including some key freshmen who are expected to contribute immediately. Lenny Bergsson (Iceland), Viktor Forslund (Sweden), Cameron Harlock (New Zealand), Zak Karkaletsos (Spain), Alejandro Madariaga (Mexico), Hiroki Miya (New Zealand) and Kristof Ulenaers (Belgium) round out the international players.
STRACKE SAYS: "This will be our first experience at the Royal Oaks Intercollegiate. Royal Oaks was designed by UNT alum and legend Don January. We're looking forward to competing against a solid field. Come out and support the team this week in Dallas."
UP NEXT: North Texas will wrap up the fall season in Hawaii, at the Ka'anapali Collegiate Invitational Nov. 1-3, before taking time off and preparing for the spring season, which begins Jan. 27-28, at the Southwestern Invitational in West Lake Village, California.
HOME SWEET MARIDOE: North Texas enjoys its home course -- the Maridoe Golf Club in Carrollton. The course opened to members in July 2017 and gives the Mean Green a state-of-the-art home course with world-class facilities, including a fully-dedicated practice facility, complete with a two-ended driving range to account for many varying wind conditions, a sprawling three-acre short game retreat and indoor facilities with state-of-the-art hitting bays that provide tools the program has not yet had at its disposal.
