BLACKBURG, Va. – The Virginia Tech golf team will open the 2012-13 schedule at the Marshall Invitational at Guyan Golf and Country Club in Huntington, W.Va., on Monday and Tuesday. The event will be played on the par 71, 6,523-yard Guyan course.

Senior Mikey Moyers (Stanardsville, Va.) leads the Hokies into the event. Moyers played in every event last season and was fourth on the team in scoring average. He has played in every event since arriving at Virginia Tech in the Fall of 2008.

Sophomore Scott Vincent (Harare, Zimbabwe) will play in the No. 2 spot for the Hokies. He led the Hokies in scoring in the two NCAA events last spring and was second on the team in scoring as a freshman. Junior Bryce Chalkley (Richmond, Virginia) will play in the third position for the Hokies. He played in every event for the Hokies last season and was fifth on the team in scoring as a sophomore.

Freshman Maclain Huge (Lovettesville, Va.) will make his collegiate debut in the fourth position for the Hokies.
