Jackson Hiller | Oglethorpe | JR | Vero Beach, FL – Oglethorpe's Jackson Hiller broke the Oglethorpe 54-hole record with a blistering 66-68-68 at the NCAA National Preview this week at Mission Inn and Resort, a 13 under par effort that topped the previous Oglethorpe record by one stroke. He held the weight of the individual lead after each of the first two rounds, ultimately leading the field in par 3 and par 5 scoring at 2 under and 8 under, respectively. Hiller's opening-round 66 was just three strokes shy of Oglethorpe's 18-hole scoring record, and he fired a 32 on the front nine highlighted by four straight birdies from holes 4 through 7. Two days later, Hiller turned in another strong start highlighted by a 31 on the front nine. This one featured five birdies, three of which came back-to-back-to-back across the first three holes. All this led the Stormy Petrels to third at the national championship preview.

- Miles Harrison | Millsaps | SO | Peachtree Corners, GA – The Millsaps men's golf team program showcased resilience and individual highlights at the Rhodes Fall Invitational, finishing eighth out of 13 competitive teams on the Tunica National Golf Club course. Sophomore Miles Harrison led the charge with a standout performance, finishing tied for ninth place at plus-five following three combined rounds of play on Sunday and Monday. Harrison's impressive total of 10 birdies over the course of the event, including five in the opening round, demonstrated his ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities early and maintain momentum throughout the tournament. Harrison (70-74-77–221) posted his best individual finish, lowest round and lowest 54-hole score of his young collegiate career.
