This has to be the year, right?
Illinois men’s golf tees things off in the NCAA Bath Regional on Monday. It’s the program’s incredible 15th consecutive regional appearance, and they’ve made the NCAA Championships 13 of those 14 years — last year in 2022 was the exception.
This year’s regional is hosted by Michigan State at Eagle Eye Golf Club in Bath, near East Lansing. It’s a 54-hole event slated to end on Wednesday.
Illinois will have five golfers competing — Tommy Kohl, Matthis Besard, Adrien Dumont de Chassart, Jackson Buchanan and Piercen Hunt — and the lowest four scores count toward the team score each round.
