The tournament will begin Tuesday
The Titans Tee‑Off for the National Showdown in Kansas
Eastern Florida State College (EFSC) has fired off the men’s golf squad into the NJCAA Division I National Tournament, heading to Sand Creek Station in Newton, Kansas. The championship kicks off this Tuesday for the first round, with the full slate of 24 teams ready to swing their way to glory.
Season Highlights
- Southeast District Finish: The Titans snagged second place after the last round was washed out—a solid finish that left everyone feeling optimistic.
- Coach Jamie Howell called it a “good” showing, noting the squad’s resilience and potential to pressure rivals throughout the tournament.
- Star sophomore duo Masen McKain and Hugo Griesheimer tied for fourth in the district, proving they’re serious contenders on the national stage.
- All three—McKain, Griesheimer, and Micke Laurelli—earned spots on the all‑district team.
- Freshman Horace Pennix said the squad has “the best golf of the season” parked in Kansas, ready to hit the ground running.
Coaching Insight
Coach Jamie Howell teased that the Titans are primed to “put some pressure on other teams.” The odds are wide open; their performance could splinter competition and spark a high‑stakes showdown.
Team Mindset
- Laurelli reminds us: “We aren’t playing our best yet, but it’s coming. Hard training pays off—this is our strongest line of the season.”
- McKain shares a clever thought, “If you’re hiking a bogey or double, just keep moving. You can make it up on the next hole—grind it out, keep the score low.”
- “We want to be in the top five,” he adds. “It’s all about adjusting to the new course and staying sharp.”
Logistics
- Date: First round begins Tues‑May‑14.
- Final: Wrap‑up slated for Fri‑May‑17.
- Course notes: Sand Creek Station features multiple holes; a single misstep won’t kill the day. Keep a cool head and aim low.
Final Takeaway
The EFSC guys are buzzing. They’re ready, sharp, and determined to send their best to Kansas. Whether it’s a bronzing tee day or a marathon on the greens, the Titans are set for a sprint to the top. Let the swing begin and may the fairways favor the bold!
