Cameron University had a field day at the only local U.S. Open qualifier to be held in Oklahoma this spring. Members of the team claimed three of the four spots available to advance to sectionals at the April 24 qualifier at The Territory in Duncan.

Preston Holmes shot a 2-under 70 to lead the field. Teammates Hamish Murray and Hunter Drotts each shot 1-under 71. Tulsa-based amateur Austin Hannah snagged the fourth spot with an even-par 72.

Aaron Simpson of Duncan and Scott Newell of Tulsa and the first and second alternates.

Cameron men’s golf lead was selected as the second-seed for the South Central Region as they head to the NCAA Division II West/South Central Regional, which starts on May 11, as they go for a spot in the National Championship in a few weeks.

This makes the second straight season that coach Austin Phillips will lead the Aggies to the postseason after the program had not seen postseason play since 2017. The field will be made up of 10 teams and four individuals from both the West and South Central regions.
