JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - North Florida men's golf has announced its full tournament schedule for the 2023-24 season on Friday afternoon.
The Ospreys are set to play in five events in the fall and seven events in the spring for a total of 12 tournaments throughout the 2023-24 campaign. They have their sights set on winning their eighth ASUN Championship title and returning to the NCAA Championship.
"This is likely the most difficult tournament schedule we have played in a few years," said head coach Scott Schroeder. "We will give our guys a great test to see how good we are."
Highly decorated All-American Nick Gabrelcik joins fellow senior and First Team All-ASUN selection Robbie Higgins as the top returners for UNF this season. Davis Lee also brings experience to the squad returning for a fifth season, while Jason Duff, Justin Ross and Alejandro Ramos all saw playing time from last year.
The Hayt will highlight the Ospreys' 2023-24 tournament slate, as they play hosts for the 32nd time looking to earn their sixth home meet victory. After playing last season's event in early February for the first time in program history, the tournament will be moved back up and played in a three-day meet from Mar. 9-11 at Sawgrass Country Club.
