St. John’s readies for 54-hole conference tournament
PINE MOUNTAIN, Ga. – The St. John's men's golf team will travel to the 2022 BIG EAST Men's Golf Championships Presented by JEEP at Callaway Resort and Gardens from April 25-27.
Ten BIG EAST schools will battle for the conference championship- Butler, Connecticut, Creighton, DePaul, Georgetown, Marquette, St. John's, Seton Hall, Villanova and Xavier. The Johnnies' lineup will include Peicheng Chen, Jack Simon, Tyler Gerbavsits, Gage Wolfle and Ryan Rittberger. Joseph Busiello will serve as the substitute.
The team winner will earn an automatic berth into the 2022 NCAA Championship field. Should the individual champion not be a member of the winning squad, he will also earn a spot in the NCAA Championship.
The Red Storm heads to the conference event following an impressive regular season. St. John's has finished in the top-3 at the squad's final two events this season. The Johnnies took third at both the Shark invitational and the Wildcat Classic. At the tournament in Brookville, N.Y., Chen paced the squad with a one-over par 214 through three rounds to tie for fourth. Wolfle tied for eighth at the 36-hole event in Villanova, Pa., when he signed off on a 145.
The BIG EAST competition is scheduled to begin each day at 8:20 a.m. Results from the tournament can be found on GolfStat.com.
