Golf: BYU lands Fremont's Zac Blair
The son of one of BYU's all-time greatest golfers has chosen the school his father played for.

Fremont High's Zac Blair, son of former BYU all-American Jimmy Blair, has signed a national letter of intent to play for the Cougars.

BYU also signed Tommy Higham, a senior at Shelley High School in Idaho and widely considered that state's top junior golfer.

Blair led Fremont to two state championships and was named All-State all four years of his high school career.

He was named a 2008 Honorable Mention All-American and tied for 17th at the 2008 Polo Jr. Classic. Blair came in second at the Golf Pride Jr. Classic and tied for the No. 22 spot at the 2008 Footjoy Invitational. He also tied for ninth at the Wellstone Communities Junior at Craig Ranch.

"We hope these guys will continue to play in competitive tournaments to gain more experience and then come in here ready to work hard for us," BYU golf coach Bruce Brockbank said.
