Las Vegas (October 24, 2011) – Dawgs Golf (www.dawgsgolf.com), a superior line of advanced-technology super-lightweight golf footwear, was selected for distribution as tee prizes at Price’s “Give ‘Em Five” Intercollegiate Golf Tournament, played Oct. 10-12 at the New Mexico State University Golf Course in Las Cruces, N.M. A pair of Dawgs “Z” sandals was given as a tee prize to every competitor and coach at the women’s intercollegiate tournament.
“We are pleased that participants in this intercollegiate event are enjoying the ultra comfort and style of Dawgs footwear,” said Steve Mann, founder, president and CEO of Dawgs Golf.
The New Mexico State U. Aggies finished seventh in the tournament, which was won by Baylor U. with a score of 860, just one stroke ahead of Western Athletic Conference competitor Idaho. Other teams participating in the tournament were the U. of North Texas; Colorado State U.; California State U. – Long Beach; U. of Texas – El Paso; Mississippi State U.; U. of California – Irvine; Southern Methodist U.; U. of Cincinnati; Boise State U.; Seattle U.; U. of Central Arkansas; and Utah Valley U.
“We selected the Dawgs “Z” sandal as the tee prize for the Price’s Give ‘Em Five Intercollegiate Golf Tournament because we felt that when you come off the course after playing 18 or 36 holes, it would be nice to change into something comfortable and easily carried in your back pack or golf bag,” said Paul Brilliant, PGA, head women’s golf coach at New Mexico State U. “Our field consisted of teams from all over, and the unanimous response was, ‘Wow…something we can use all the time.’
“With the variety of Dawgs footwear styles available, as well as a wide range of colors and a great price point, Dawgs make a wonderful gift that all will appreciate.”
