He is currently participating in his first professional event, The Viking Classic, held in Madison. Both the men’s and women’s teams have high hopes as the season gets underway. “Our goals don’t change,” Drinkard said. “We prepare very hard at home, get better every practice, and go to tournaments and have fun. This is very beneficial.” Men’s coach Ernest Ross said about his team: “We would like to make a run for the SEC title and I believe we have the team that can do that.” Both coaches see something special in their teams and hope that the golf fan base can grow and blossom into something big. “We encourage the fan base to follow us and keep up with our tournaments online at golfstat.com,” Drinkard said. “We have a good group of guys and I would want the public to see a group passionate about the sport that works hard and repre- sents the University well,” Ross said.
