...four (average score: 4.34). This is one of the holes that make Augusta National a long-driver's course. You've got to flirt with the trees on the left, but gently. Too much left and you're in the woods. The ideal tee shot is a low, running draw that goes slightly left of center in order to catch a steep slope tilting toward the green, leaving you a two-or three-iron home. If you fade your drive to the right, you've got an impossible downhill-sidehill shot that is at least...
HOLE 11: 445 yds., par four (average score: 4.32). Here you really want to crank it up because your drive has to carry the crest of a hill.

In addition to McConnell, Yellin, Thompson, Rickets and Vik, senior Jon Ellis, junior Scott McNealy and sophomore Jon Bartlett will get a chance to tee off on the Sunshine State links. Senior Peter Zurkow would also be joining the team, but his role in the Hasty Pudding Show takes him to Bermuda during spring break, where hopefully he will get in a few rounds before returning...
