The AJGA prides itself on preparing junior golfers for college. The Alumni Honor Roll recognizes past AJGA players who have recently medaled at a college tournament.
Georgia Tech took home its first U.S. Collegiate title at their home club, The Golf Club of Georgia, Oct. 24-26. The Yellow Jackets were led by junior James White, who posted a first-round 10-under-par 62 to capture a wire-to-wire individual crown. The Georgia Tech team posted a tournament and school record when they won by 27 shots. In addition to White, AJGA alumni Richard Werenski, John-Tyler Griffin, Paul Haley, William Miller and Seth Reeves, all competed for the Yellow Jackets.
Arkansas freshman Emily Tubert matched an NCAA record with a first-round 9-under-par 63 and captured medalist honors at the Las Vegas Collegiate Showdown, Oct. 25-27 at Boulder Creek Golf Club in Boulder City, Nev. Tubert took home her second individual title in three starts this year, while the Razorbacks captured their second team victory this season.
