Jamie Schwaberow
Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Vanderbilt, Georgia Tech and LSU earned top seeds when the NCAA men’s golf committee announced on Wednesday the 81 teams and 45 individuals to play in the six NCAA Men's Regional tournaments May 14-16.
The Cowboys enter the postseason having won eight team titles in the 2017-'18 season, including a school-record seven straight. However, OSU fell to rival Oklahoma, the defending NCAA champions, at the Big 12 Championship last week.
The top five teams from each regional and the low individual not on those teams advances to NCAA Championship at Karsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla., May 25-30.
