Methodist Picked to Defend USA South Golf Title
(FAYETTEVILLE, N.C.) - Methodist University, under the direction of 23rd-year Head Coach Steve Conley, was picked to win the USA South Athletic Conference 2010 golf title in the preseason coaches' poll. Last spring, the Monarchs captured their seventh consecutive USA South Championship, their 27th title in program history.
Methodist received six of seven first-place votes (36 points) as head
coaches do not vote for their own teams in the balloting.
Greensboro College finished
second in the balloting with 30 points and the remaining first-place vote
while Christopher Newport University placed third in the poll with 27 points.
Averett University rounded out the top-four of the poll with 18 points.
The 2010 USA South Golf Tournament will be played on the par 72, 7004-yard,
Mill Creek Golf Club in Mebane, North Carolina on April 16-18.
