Course: Bandon Dunes Golf Course
Course Vitals: Par-71, 6,600 yards
Dates: March 8-10, 2026

THE COURSE:
Bandon Dunes is true to the spirit of Scotland's ancient links. Here, players immerse themselves in the traditions of a timeless game and the grandeur of Oregon's rugged coast. Sweeping, untamed shores stretch for miles. Primeval grassy dunes roll to the sea.

It began in 1999 with the opening of Bandon Dunes. Designed by Scotsman David McLay Kidd, the course is perched on a bluff high above the Pacific Ocean. Bandon Dunes unfolds along pristine native dunes where expansive ocean views are revealed on nearly every hole. The course is completely natural and routed through an environment of indigenous vegetation. Beyond breathtaking scenery lies the game of golf in its truest form. This is a thinker's course. Winds are ever-present, and the varying elements create a new experience each time you play.

THE FIELD:
In addition to Seton Hall and host Idaho, the highly-competitive field includes 13 other teams including: Air Force, Denver, Eastern Washington, Oregon, Oregon State, Pennsylvania, Sacramento State, Santa Clara, Seattle University, SIU Edwardsville, Utah Tech, Utah Valley and Wofford.

LAST TIME OUT:
Senior Jack Bosworth (Daniel Island, S.C.) matched his career-best round with a 5-under-par, 67, in round three to lift the Pirates to an eighth-place finish at the 2026 Loyola Intercollegiate on Feb 17.

Bosworth was brilliant in round three, using four birdies and an eagle on the par-5, No. 2 hole to power his monster round. For the tournament, he tied for 63rd place with a 2-over-par, 75-76-67-218.

As a team, The Hall shot it's third sub-par round of the tournament, again finishing with a 4-under-par, 284. It finished in a tie for eighth place with Northern Colorado at 10-under-par for the tournament. For the three-round event, the Pirates shot a 286-284-284-854. It's Seton Hall's fourth sub-par tournament in six events so far during the 2025-26 year, and the 25th sub-par tournament in program history.

Sophomore Will Hennessee (Tulsa, Okla.) was the top Seton Hall golfer for the tournament. On Tuesday, he had three birdies and also eagled the par-5, No. 2 hole in route to a 1-over-par, 73. For the 54-hole event, he tied for 30th place among 119 golfers with a 2-under-par, 71-70-73-214. It's Hennessee's fourth career sub-par tournament.

LAST TIME AT BANDON DUNES:
Despite cold and windy conditions, former Pirate Wanxi Sun shot a 1-under-par, 71, in the final round to lift the Pirates to an 11th place team finish at the 2023 Bandon Dunes Championship.

Sun had five birdies and nine pars on a fantastic final round to lead the Pirates. For the tournament, he tied for 16th place among 112 individual golfers with a 3-over-par, 76-71-147. As a team, The Hall shaved 12 strokes off its first-round score to finish with a 6-over-par, 294. For the tournament, they placed 11th with a 24-over-par, 306-294-600.
