Freshman is first Utah golfer to qualify for regional since 2007
INDIANAPOLIS – Utah freshman golfer Blake Tomlinson earned a spot in the NCAA Stockton Regional, the NCAA Division I Men's Golf Committee announced on Wednesday.
Tomlinson carded a 71.6 strokes-per-round average over 34 rounds in his first season with the Utes. He tallied a pair of top-10 finishes individually, which included his season-best finish at the Desert Mountain Intercollegiate, where he carded a 3-under par (64-75-74=213) en route to a tie for fourth-place. His first-round score of 8-under par (64) was tied for the team's season-low overall on the season.
Tomlinson registered a team-best 18 rounds of par or better, which included carding scores in the 60's, in six of his 34 rounds on the year. The Salt Lake City native finished in a tie for 41st-place in the Pac-12 Championships, posting a 3-over par (287). He was Utah's scoring leader in three of 11 tournaments this season.
"A huge congratulations to Blake, to be selected to the NCAA Regional Championships," said Utah head golf coach Garrett Clegg. "He has had a great year and this is a fantastic reward for his consistent play. Blake is just beginning his career here at the U and he has already made a huge impact on our golf program."
Tomlinson, who is one of 10 individuals that will compete at The Reserve at Spanos Park, May 14-16, is the first Utah golfer to earn a spot in the NCAA Regional since Dustin Pimm went back in 2007.
