MADISON, WI – The Maryland men’s golf team finished in a two-way tie for 16th at the 2022 Badger Invitational on Tuesday in their season opener. The first day of the tournament was canceled due to inclement weather and, as a result, was reduced from a 54-hole event to a 36-hole event. Senior Will Koras led the Terrapins, finishing in a four-way for 16th, posting a score of 142 (71-71), at two under par.
The Terps played the par-72 – 7,286-yard Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed University Ridge Golf Course.
