"We are excited to be hosting the UNF Collegiate at Jacksonville Golf and Country Club for the eighth year in a row. The course is in incredible condition and it always proves to be a great test of golf. The team is playing well this spring and we continue pushing ourselves everyday in practice. It would be great to win at home for third year in a row and also to add a third win for this season."
