BOULDER – The best-case scenario for David Oraee would have been traveling this week to the NCAA Golf Championships with his University of Colorado teammates. Instead, Oraee has settled for a trip to the Deep South with a CU assistant coach.
Check that. “Settled” is not the right choice of words. The trip for Oraee and Brandon White is far too special to be classified in any way as settling.
Their time together in Bradenton, Fla., will mark the final weekend for Oraee as a CU golfer and for White as a CU assistant. Oraee is a senior, White is leaving coaching after nine years – the past two with the Buffs – to enter private business with his father.

Video interview (~2-1/2 minutes) with Mr. Oraee- http://www.cubuffs.com/mediaPortal/player.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=600&id=4098392
Live Results- http://www.golfstatresults.com/public/leaderboards/nonav.cfm?pg=player&tid=8027 (Looks like Mr. Oraee tees off at 7:00 AM MT on Friday and 12:20 PM MT Saturday.)
Live Television- From what I could find, only the final round of the Individual Championships on Monday, June 1st is being televised, on Golf Channel, starting at 2:00 PM MT.
(Per CU's notes for the event ( http://www.cubuffs.com/pdf9/3592008.pdf ), "After the third round of stroke play, the field will be cut to the top 15 teams (out of 30) plus the top nine individuals not associated with those 15 teams for Monday’s fourth and final round. ". So, there's no guarantee Mr. Oraee will still be playing on the broadcast day; he'll have to have to have a good 1st 3 days of golf.)
