Cowboys Travel to the State of Oregon for the 2001 Mountain West Conference Men's Golf Championship: The 2001 Mountain West Conference Men's Golf Championship tees off on Monday, April 30 at the Sunriver Resort in Sunriver, Ore.

All eight MWC member universities sponsor men's golf teams. The eight squads will compete in a 54-hole format, with one 18-hole round to be played on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, April 30-May 2. Tee times for each day are set for 11 a.m., Mountain time. The tournament will be played on the Crosswater Course at Sunriver Resort.

Wyoming will be led by three seniors David Hearn, Jake Hunter and Kevin Kayden. Hearn placed eighth in last year's MWC Championship. Hearn shot a one-over par total of 217 for 54 holes, and advanced to the 2000 NCAA West Regional. Hunter placed 22nd in last season's conference championship with an eight-over par total of 224. As of the most recent MWC leader board (April 22, 2001), two Cowboys were ranked among the Top 25 individuals in the conference. David Hearn was tied for 12th with a 73.2 stroke average, and junior Mike Urbatchka was tied for 22nd at 74.3.

Four Mountain West schools were ranked among the Top 30 teams in the country as of the April 23, 2001, Golfweek collegiate golf rankings. New Mexico was ranked No. 12. UNLV held down the No. 21 spot. BYU was No. 24, and San Diego State was ranked No. 28. The Cowboys enter the 2001 MWC Championship coming off a strong showing at the BYU Cougar Classic on April 20-21 in Provo, Utah. Wyoming finished seventh out of 16 teams at BYU. Included among the teams UW defeated in the Cougar Classic were MWC opponents Utah and Air Force. The Cowboys also defeated NCAA District 7 foes Fresno State, UTEP, Nevada, Boise State, Weber State and Southern Utah. Wyoming's success against all District 7 teams throughout the season will be considered when NCAA Tournament bids are announced at the conclusion of the 2001 season.

Scott Lander of UNLV, Michael Letzig of New Mexico and Wyoming's Hearn are the top returning finishers from last year's MWC Championship. Lander tied for fourth at the 2000 MWC Championship.
