The University of Washington men's golf team will wrap up its fall schedule at the Gifford Collegiate at the Silverado Resort and Spa North Course in Napa Calif. The Huskies tee off beginning on Monday (Nov. 7) for the three-day event.
The Gifford Collegiate, which in the past had featured 54 holes of stroke play, will be played under a new format this year. The eight-team field will play 36 holes of stroke play on Monday to seed into Tuesday and Wednesday's match play. Tuesday will feature the match play quarterfinals in the morning and the match play semifinals/consolation in the afternoon, followed by the Wednesday championship and consolation bracket matches. Each team will play three match-play contests.
