Bulldogs Ready For Tavistock Collegiate Invitational

Georgia will continue the fall portion of its schedule next week in the Tavistock Collegiate Invitational in Orlando, Fla.

The tournament will be held Sunday through Tuesday at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club. The event was formerly known as the Isleworth Invitational and the Bulldogs last played in it in 2010. Georgia won the Isleworth Invitational in 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008.

Haack will use a lineup of seniors Mookie DeMoss and Sam Straka, redshirt junior Sepp Straka, sophomore Greyson Sigg and freshman Zach Healy. This will mark the first time the Straka twins have been in the playing lineup at the same time in their collegiate careers. In three previous tournaments, either one or both appeared as an individual.

DeMoss is the top Bulldog in the lineup with a 72.33 scoring average. Sepp Straka is next at 72.50, followed by Sigg at 72.56 and Healy at 74.67. Sam Straka will be making his 2014-15 debut.

Joining the Bulldogs and co-hosts Central Florida and Texas Tech in the Tavistock Collegiate Invitational will be Florida State, Baylor, Florida, North Florida, Indiana, Vanderbilt, Illinois, UNLC, GRU Augusta and New Mexico.

The Bulldogs will tee off on Sunday between 8:50 and 9:30 a.m. with their counterparts from California and Arkansas. Live results can be found here.
