Head Coach Scott Limbaugh on the Ben Hogan Collegiate Invitational
“This is certainly an event we circle on our schedule every fall. Golfers come to play at Vandy for opportunities like this against high-level competition on a PGA TOUR course.

Each player has to be honest with themselves, and if they haven’t played to their true potential, it’s time to do what it takes to be their best.
