The No. 83-ranked Scarlet Knights join six other programs rated among the Golfstat top 85 in the 12-team field on the par 72, 6,157-yard course.
The Invitational is the third of six tournaments on RU's spring schedule. Rutgers is coming off a second place finish at the weather-shortened River Landing Classic, played March 4 in Wallace, N.C. Graduate co-captain
