Men's Golf Hosts First Grier Jones Shocker Invitational

WICHITA, Kan. – For the first time since 2012, the Wichita State men's golf program will host a home tournament as the Grier Jones Shocker Invitational comes to Crestview Country Club on October 10-11.

This year's event is named after Jones, who retired in 2019 after leading the Shockers to 15 conference championships over the course of his decorated career.

The Grier Jones Shocker Invitational will include ten teams: Air Force, Drake, Hutchinson, Indian Hills, Missouri State, Northern Iowa, Omaha, South Dakota, Utah Valley and Wichita State.
