CEDAR CITY, Utah – The oldest continuous golf tournament in the world, the Utah State Amateur Championship, is celebrating its 125th consecutive running, and SUU will be represented well.
Three currently rostered SUU golfers qualified for the 156-man field, Rashon Williams, Leo Torres and incoming freshman Luke Barnes.
They will be joined by two SUU alumni, Austin Jaramillo and Ryan Brimley. Jaramillo was on the golf team at SUU from 2017-2020 and Brimley actually played basketball for the Thunderbirds in the 2009-10 season.
The event will be held at the Salt Lake Country Club on June 26-30. It will feature 36 holes of stroke play and then the top 64 scores will advance to a match-play tournament to close out the week.
Jeff Evans, another SUU Golf alum won the event in 2011.
