JONESBORO, Ark. (5/20/16) – Arkansas State men’s golf student-athletes Tanner Napier and Matthew Cole are set to compete in the U.S. Open sectional qualifying stage June 6 after recently making it through a local qualifying round held at the Hot Springs (Ark.) Country Club.
Napier and Cole will enter the 2016-17 season as a junior and redshirt freshman, respectively, on the A-State squad, which broke the school record for outright tournament championships this year. The A-State pair both shot a 69 at the local qualifying round on May 10, placing them among five players from the Hot Springs site to earn a spot in the sectional qualifying stage.
