Southern Illinois will stop in Manhattan, Kansas to compete in the Wildcat Invitational, hosted by Kansas State, on September 13-14, 2021.
The 13-team field will tee off at Colbert Hills Country Club, recognized as Kansas' premier public golf layout by Golf Digest. Opened in 2000, Colbert Hills has hosted the 2002 Big 12 Women's Championship, the 2003 NCAA Men's Central Regional and the 2005 Kansas Men's Amateur Championship.
The championship course features treeless fairways with generous landing areas, numerous creeks, and large greens bordered by native prairie tallgrass. The signature hole is the 600-yard No. 7 that includes a 90-foot drop from the tee to the fairway.
The Salukis lineup will consist of senior Matthis Besard, freshman Braden Hoisington, sophomore Justin Wingerter, senior Tom Cleaton, and junior Andrew Thornton. Freshman Carsen Silliman will compete as an individual.
A shotgun start is scheduled for Rounds 1 & 2, beginning Monday, September 13 at 8:00am CT. Live scoring will be available on GolfStat.com.
