T.J. Mitchell will wrap up his Georgia career next week in the NCAA Championships. |
The Georgia men's golf team will be the No. 12 seed in the NCAA Championships next week at the Capital City Club's Crabapple Course in Alpharetta.
The Bulldogs will begin their quest for the program's third national title on Tuesday when they tee off in 10-minute increments between 1:30 and 2:10 p.m. on the first hole. Wednesday, Georgia will start on the 10th hole between 8:10 and 8:50 a.m.
Georgia will be paired Tuesday and Wednesday with No. 10 seed Florida and No. 11 seed Southern Cal. California, Alabama, UCLA and Texas are the top four seeds for the NCAAs.
Thursday's pairings will be based on the 36-hole scoring. The top eight teams after 54 holes will advance to the match play portion of the tournament. The medalist also will be crowned after the third round.
Georgia will be making its 44th appearance in the NCAAs, including its 15th in 17 years under Coach Chris Haack. The Bulldogs won the NCAA title in 1999 in Minnesota and in 2005 in Maryland. Georgia qualified for this year's NCAAs with a second-place finish in the Tempe Regional last week.
The Bulldogs are expected to use a lineup of senior T.J. Mitchell, juniors Joey Garber and Keith Mitchell, sophomore Nicholas Reach and freshman Lee McCoy.
Tickets to the NCAAs are available through tournament host Georgia Tech's ticket office (1-888-TECH-TIX or ramblinwreck.com).
