BELLINGHAM, Wash. – The Western Washington University men's golf has extended its amazing streak of qualifying for the NCAA Division II Men's Golf Championships to 26 consecutive seasons.

 

WWU was announced as the No. 9 seed in the West Region and will compete in the 20-team NCAA II West/South Central Super Regional that will be held May 8-10 at Victoria Club in Riverside, California. Cal State San Bernardino will serve as the tournament host for the 54-hole tournament. The Vikings have advanced to play in the regional tournament in all 26 seasons eligible since joining the NCAA level in 1998-99.

 

The Vikings are part of a national field of 80 teams and 30 individuals that begin the NCAA postseason with the goal of qualifying for the national championships that will be held May 19-23 at PGA National Resort on the Champion Course in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The top six teams from the West/South Central Regional will earn a bid to the national championship tournament.

Junior Peter Dionne-Yahr has a 72.6 scoring average (+1 to par) with a pair of top 10 finishes and sophomore Nick Ennis is coming off a runner-up finish at the GNAC Championships.
