The Flyer men's golf team is set to host the UD Spring Invitational at Shaker Run Golf Club. A total of 12 teams will compete in the 54-hole event in Sunday and Monday. Action begins with a shotgun start at 8 a.m. ET on Sunday. After 36 holes on Sunday, the Tournament concludes Monday with 18 holes beginning at 8 a.m. ET.

Dayton will be playing its first tournament under the direction of Head Coach Drew Tyrer. Tyrer, a former Flyer, returns to UD from the University of Louisville where he served as an Assistant Coach for two years.

Last time out, the Flyers finished seventh at the Norm Bullock College Classic on April 9 & 10. Freshman Rob Chappell led UD with a second place finish individually.

Chappell, who shot a three round total of 219 (74-71-74), finished one behind the eventual winner of the tournament, Dustin Sloat of Eastern Illinois.
