SOUTHERN PINES, N.C. – The University of St. Thomas men's golf team returned to competition for the first time since the fall season, taking part in the Babygrande Donald Ross Collegiate, a 20-team tournament hosted by George Mason at Mid Pines Golf Club in North Carolina.
The Tommies competed against a deep field that included programs such as Georgetown, Richmond, Loyola Chicago, St. John's, and South Dakota in a three-day event played on the historic Donald Ross-designed course.
St. Thomas was represented by Tyler McNeive, Owen Rexing, Gavin Newkirk, Mason Roloff, and Jesse Hand, the same lineup that helped the Tommies to a team victory at the Shoker Invitational during the fall.
The Toms finished 16th in the 20-team field, battling through challenging conditions at the par-72 Mid Pines layout. Tyler McNeive led the Tommies with a 49th place finish in the 100-golfer field.
Team Result
16th – St. Thomas – 295-293-305—893 (+29)
Individual Results
T-49th – Tyler McNeive – 73-73-77—223 (+7)
