Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida - Tulsa will play its second spring tournament and second of the month of February at the 54-hole John Hayt Collegiate Invitational, Feb. 26-28, at the par-72 Sawgrass Country Club.

A year ago, the Hurricane placed eighth in the 15-team field at the John Hayt Invitational.

Tulsa is coming off of an 11th place performance in its first tournament of the spring season at the UTSA Oak Hill Invitational earlier this month. Sophomore John Young Kim turned in Tulsa's best finish at the Oak Hill with a 12th place showing, while freshman Colton Staggs was next with a 48th place finish in his first collegiate tournament.

The Hurricane goes into this week's event with a line-up of Kim, Staggs, senior Andre' Tourinho, junior Mark Mumford and freshman Matt Mabrey.
