LAS CRUCES, N.M. – Beginning Monday at 8:15 a.m., golf fans will be in for a treat as the only home tournament of the year for NM State men's golf tees off. The Aggies will host 11other teams in the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate, alongside a strong field of individual competitors.
A tournament named after a man who did so much for the NM State golf program, "The Wimberly" takes on even more meaning this year. Last month, PGA of America announced Wimberly as one of the selections to this year's Hall of Fame class. Previously, Wimberly had been inducted into both the Golf Coaches of America Hall of Fame, New Mexico Sports Hall of Fame, New Mexico State Athletics Hall of Fame, and the University of New Mexico Hall of Fame.
