DAYTON, Ohio - Dayton Flyers men's golf head coach Gip Hoagland announced the 2012 fall schedule which includes five events in four states.

The Flyers will return to four of the tournaments they played in last season.

The only difference between last year’s schedule and this season’s is when UD opens the 2012-13 campaign at the Marshall Fall Invitational from Sept. 10-11. The event will take place at the Guyan Golf and Country Club in Huntington, W. Va.

Two weeks later the Flyers head to the Commonwealth of Kentucky to compete in the Cardinal Classic. Hosted by the University of Louisville, the tournament will take place Sept. 24-25 at the Cardinal Club Course in Simpsonville, Ky.

In October, Dayton zips down south to compete at the Cobra-Puma Invitational in Fort Myers, Fla. The invite will be held from Sept. 30 – Oct. 1 with Xavier University as the host. This will be the fourth consecutive season UD will compete in that event.

A week later, UD plays in the Bearcat Invitational at the Traditions Golf Club in Hebron, Ky. The tournament takes place from Oct. 8-9. Dayton has competed at the Bearcat Invite the previous two years as well.

Finally, the Flyers wrap up with the UD Fall Invitational at the NCR Country Club. The tournament will take place from Oct. 22-23.

Dayton returns all but one golfer from last year’s team. The Flyers’ top returnees include seniors Matt Buse, Brenten Blakeman and Sean Keating.

Buse earned Atlantic 10 All-Conference and All-Academic honors last season. He became the third Flyer to have earned both academic and athletic all-conference honors in the same season.

Keating tied for the team lead in total rounds played (26) and ranked second in stroke average (74.6). Blakeman tied with Keating for the best individual round last season with a 66 and was fifth with a 75.2 stroke average.
