"I'm really proud of our team - all nine of our guys. They're doing great things on and off the golf course," said UNLV head coach
Jean-Paul Hebert. "We have the chance to go to the NCAA Regionals at Texas A&M, which isn't too far from where we've played tournaments these past couple of years. That's why we play tournaments in different parts of the country, so that we can be prepared for this moment right here. The postseason is what we play for all year, so our guys are as ready as you can be, excited and motivated to go play."
The top five teams and the top individual at the 54-hole tournament will advance to the NCAA Championship at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad, California, being held May 29-June 3.
