Avrit Finds Peace Under Pressure

The recent history of Oregon men's golf includes some of the best players in the program's rich tradition. In the last decade, the Ducks' lineup has been headlined by guys including Aaron Wise, Wyndham Clark and Norman Xiong, each now excelling in the professional ranks.

It's looking like that fraternity could soon gain a new member.

When the UO men take the course at Eugene Country Club for the two-day Duck invitational beginning Monday, they'll be led by a reigning Pac-12 men's golfer of the week. Owen Avrit earned that accolade after taking medalist honors and helping Oregon win the team title March 14 in the Bandon Dunes Championship.
