JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Armed with his selection as honorable mention All-America and strong summer campaign, Russell Knox has been invited to the Western Refining College All-America Golf Classic. The Western Refining College All-America Golf Classic brings all of the previous year's All-America honorees to El Paso, Texas. Knox will be facing the nation's best, with last year's national player of the year, Oklahoma State's Pablo Martin, headlining the field.

"This is a great opportunity for Russell and a well deserved honor," said JU head coach Jim Taketa. "The experience from playing in this tournament will help Russell tremendously. He had a good summer of competition and will be ready when we start the fall season."
