Sitake, Whittingham rekindle friendship at annual rivalry golf tournament

SANDY — At the annual Liberty Mutual Invitational golf tournament supporting the National Kidney Foundation, BYU coach Kalani Sitake and Utah coach Kyle Whittingham shared laughs — but Whittingham had the last one as his Ute-bases squad won the duel.

Whittingham's group, which included assistant coaches Morgan Scalley and Fred Whittingham, shot 60 to beat out Sitake's 65 in a group that included assistants Ty Detmer and Ilaisa Tuiaki.

Both sides raised $60,000 for the National Kidney Foundation of Utah and Idaho, and as is customary at the annual charity event at Hidden Valley Country Club, the losing squad had to sing the fight song of the winning squad's school.
