The University of Mary men's golf team is gearing up for a busy Easter weekend, competing at two events: the Upper Iowa Invite on April 3-4 and the Augustana Invite on April 6-7. The A team for the Upper Iowa Invite will feature Lucas Schoepp, Quinn Breidenbach, Payton Hiller, Ryker Landers, and David Thomson, while the B team includes Aiden Knodel, Lucas Greenlun, Evan Booth, Dawson Melbo, and Kristian Knodel. Last year, UMary finished 8th at the Upper Iowa Invite and 5th at the Augustana Invite, highlighting their competitive spirit.
