    Vanderbilt, North Carolina, Illinois, Arizona State, Texas Tech and Pepperdine earned top seeds when the NCAA men’s golf committee announced on Wednesday the 81 schools and 45 individuals to play in the six 2023 NCAA Men’s Regional tournaments being held around the country May 15-17.

    The top five teams from each regional and the low individual not on those teams advance to the NCAA Championship at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, May 26-31.

    Texas earned a No. 3 seed in the East Lansing Regional as it aims to defend its team title from a year ago. The last school to repeat as men’s winners was Alabama in 2013 and 2014. Vanderbilt’s Gordon Sargent earned medalist honors a year ago and is trying to put himself in position to be the first back-to-back winner since Phil Mickelson in 1989 and 1990.

    This is the 14th year the men’s national championship is including match play to decide the team champion. The tournament begins with a 72-hole stroke-play segment to crown an individual champion (who will earn exemptions into the U.S. Open this summer and next year’s Masters) and whittle the field down to eight schools. Those teams will then compete in a head-to-head match-play bracket.

    Thirty-six programs have advanced to match play since the format was adopted in 2009, with Oklahoma State having the most appearances with nine, followed by Illinois and Texas with seven.
