Excluding 2020 when there was no Fall schedule (Covid), Rutgers opens their season for the 7th year in a row at Minnesota. 36 holes will be played Sunday with the 18 hole final Monday.
Last year RU led by 3 strokes after 36 holes before stumbling in the final 18, dropping to 8th in a tightly bunched field. Individually Rhett Sellers and Xavier Marcoux were in or tied for 1st throughout the first 2 rounds before finishing T4 and T10.
While no lineup is listed at the moment, it would seem likely vereran regulars Grad Xavier Marcoux (1 career individual title), Sr Rhett Sellers,Grad Luke Wells, and Jr Weston Jones will make up 4 of the 5 players entered. The 5th would come from Utah transfer Jr Martin Leon (Chile), Soph Logan Paczewski, freshmen Andrew Reyes (TX), or Derek Gutierrez (Cranford, NJ).
Based on the '22-'23 Sagarin rankings, Northwestern comes in as the highest ranked team at #30 out of 305 D1 programs. They are followed by #53 Notre Dame, #54 Kansas, and #58 Furman. At #77 Rutgers comes in as the 8th highest ranked in the 14 team field.
Spikemark takes over for long time NCAA official scorer, Golfstat, this season. The site has been down for the past 1-2 weeks while they upgrade their system so there may be problems getting info but who knows?
