NCAA COLUMBUS REGIONAL RECAPFighting Illini men’s golf made its 11th consecutive appearance at the NCAA Columbus Regional this year, earning a runner-up finish on the Scarlet Course at The Ohio State University Golf Club. The Orange and Blue shot even par through three rounds of play, and finished 15-strokes ahead of third-place UNLV.

Four Illini finished among the top 10 individuals, led by senior Nick Hardy who tied for fourth overall with a total score 2-under par. No. 1-ranked Oklahoma State took the regional title with a total score 8-under par. Hardy was joined among the top 10 individuals by Bryan Baumgarten (9th, E), Michael Fealges (T-10th, +1) and Dylan Meyer (T-10th, +1).

REGIONAL HISTORYThe Illini won four consecutive NCAA Regionals from 2013-2016 and earned a runner-up finish at the 2018 NCAA Columbus Regional. UI is one of just two schools to have won four straight Regional Championships, and was the first school to do so since the early 1990s (Arizona, 1990-1993). Illinois is one of 14 schools to have won four or more regional titles overall. Oklahoma State leads the way, however, as the Cowboys have garnered 13 NCAA Regional titles in school history.

THE VENUE - KARSTEN CREEK GOLF CLUB Built for the Oklahoma State men's and women's golf programs, the course was designed by Tom Fazio and honored as the Best New Public Course for 1994 by Golf Digest Magazine. It stretches over 7,400 yards with SR1020 bent-grass greens and zoysia fairways. All of the holes were carved from the native oak trees surrounding Lake Louise. The course has hosted several championship events including three NCAA Golf Championships, an NCAA Regional, and the PING/Golfweek Preview.

GOLF CHANNEL COVERAGEThe Golf Channel will provide pre-tournament, live and post-round coverage of the NCAA Men’s Golf Championships beginning on May 28 (3-7 p.m.) when the individu-al national champion is crowned. Golf Channel’s coverage also will include all three rounds of the team match-play tournament on Tuesday, May 29 (10 a.m.-12:30 p.m.; 3-7 p.m.) and Wednesday, May 30 (3-7 p.m.). In addition, Golf Central will feature combined pre-and post-event live news coverage produced on location, as well as daily news updates on Morning Drive and Golf Channel Digital.

BIG TEN POSTSEASON HONORSFighting Illini men's golf was recognized by the Big Ten Conference this season as the league announced its postseason awards. Head Coach Mike Small was honored as Big Ten Men's Golf Coach of the Year for the fourth-straight season and the 10th time in his career, while senior Nick Hardy was named the league's Player of the Year. Hardy also earned a spot on the All-Big Ten First Team, as did senior Dylan Meyer and sophomore Michael Feagles. Sophomore Bryan Baumgarten earned Second Team All-Big Ten recognition. An Illini has been tabbed the league's Player of the Year in each of the last seven seasons and eight times in the last nine years.

ILLINI IN THE NATIONAL RANKINGSFighting Illini men's golf checks in as the No. 10 team in the country on the latest Golfstat rankings, and seniors Nick Hardy and Dylan Meyer rank among the top 25 individuals in the country as well. Hardy checks in at No. 17 according to Golfstat, while Meyer ranks 21st. Sophomore Michael Feagles is also among the top 100 as he sits at No. 97 in the nation.

Illinois was voted the No. 11 team in the country in the latest Bushnell Golfweek Coaches Poll, and the Illini rank 12th according to the latest Golfweek Sagarin rankings. Individually, Hardy checks in at No. 15 in the country according to Golfweek, while Meyer sits at No. 38.

Hardy and Meyer are both ranked among the top 15 in the World Amateur Golf Rankings, as Meyer checks in at No. 6 and Hardy is ranked 11th.

BIG TEN CHAMPIONSHIP FOUR PEATThe Illini battled windy conditions at Baltimore Country Club (Par 70, 7,181-yards) on April 29 to win their fourth consecutive Big Ten Championship title. The only team to finish under par for the tournament, Illinois earned a 4-under par total tally to finish 15 strokes ahead of runner-up Ohio State (+11). The title marks the 16th Big Ten Men’s Golf Championship in program history, and the ninth title in the last 10 seasons.

Illinois has won 16 Big Ten Men’s Golf Championships in school history, with nine of those coming under head coach Mike Small. Small has the unique distinction of winning nine Big Ten titles as a coach and one as a player (1988). Illinois is the first school to win nine Big Ten titles in 10 years since Ohio State won 11 titles in 12 years from 1976-1987.

One of just two players to finish under par in the tournament, senior Nick Hardy closed the tournament at 6-under par to earn Big Ten Medalist honors. Hardy marks the eighth consecutive Big Ten Championship medalist from Illinois, and he is the fourth Illini to win multiple individual conference titles in his career. Hardy previously earned Big Ten Co-Medalist honors as a freshman in 2015. The Orange and Blue are the only team in Big Ten history to garner eight consecutive individual medalists.

DYNAMIC DUOIllinois' senior duo of Dylan Meyer and Nick Hardy have had quite the career at Illinois. In their four seasons on campus the two have contributed to four Big Ten Championship titles and have combined for three Big Ten Individual medalist honors. Each has been named Big Ten Player of the Year, and they've put together eight All-Big Ten and three All-America laurels. The duo are the first pair to appear in the Illini lineup for four consecutive Big Ten Championship titles.

Both Meyer and Hardy are ranked among the top 25 collegiate golfers in the nation, and each sits among the top 15 players in the World Amateur Golf Rankings. Meyer is ranked No. 6 in the world and Hardy checks in at No. 11.

RECORD-SETTINGIllini senior Nick Hardy is on pace for a record-setting season at Illinois. Hardy currently boasts a 70.32 stroke average this season, which, should he continue his consistent play, will rank at the top of Illinois' single-season stroke average list. Hardy has won four individual tournament titles in his career, including two Big Ten Championship titles and the NCAA West Lafayette Regional. His current career stroke average is 71.87, which would check in at No. 3 all-time on Illinois' career stroke average list. Four-time All-American Charlie Danielson holds the current career and season records with a four-year stroke average of 71.66. He held a 70.67 stroke average during the 2015-16 campaign.

Fellow senior, Dylan Meyer, currently boasts a 71.74 career stroke average and a 70.84 stroke average this season. At this point in time, Meyer would check in at No. 3 for his career numbers and at No. 4 for his single-season stroke average. Meyer is one of four players to hold Illinois' record for the lowest 18-hole score as he fired a course and tournament record 63 at the 2017 Big Ten Championships at Baltimore Country Club.
