The field also includes Arizona, BYU, BYU-Hawai'i, Colorado State, Denver, Fresno State, Hawai'i-Hilo, Missouri, Nevada, SMU, Utah, UTEP and host Hawai'i.


Senior All-American Jordan Russell (71.7 stroke average) and junior All-American Cameron Peck (71.5) will lead the Aggies. Joining them will be redshirt freshman Greg Yates, who recorded a team-best 69.7 average this fall, senior Geoff Shaw (73.2) and true freshman Ty Dunlap (74.3). Junior Case Cochran (73.7) will compete as an individual.
