Mens golf hosts first first tournament in 10 years, securing a victory

Mens golf played in the Grier Jones Shocker Invitational, which was their first home tournament in 10 years, at Crestview Country Club. The Shockers placed first overall.

The Kansas Sports Hall of Fame and former Shocker mens golf coach Grier Jones — who the tournament was named after — watched the team compete.

“He’s done so much for college golf and they city of Wichita and it was just a no brainer and I called him one morning and said coach I’d love to name this after you and you know he gave us the blessing and we are going to run with it and try and do this at Crestview North if they’ll have us,” head coach Judd Easterling said.
