Florida has not played in two weeks since the Southern Highlands Collegiate, where Yuxin Lin won the tournament with a score of -13 and Fred Biondi had a rough week, shooting +17. Lin looks to keep the momentum rolling while Biondi seeks redemption out west.
Also, Gator sophomore Ryan Hart competed as an individual at the Daytona Spring Beach Invitational March 7. Hart individually won the event with a score of -9 (207). He shot all three rounds under par (69, 68, 70) at the par 72 and edged out the competition by a stroke. Hart will be competing as an individual in Tucson.
