Cowboys head for desert, Sooners in Corvallis for regionals

Defending national champion Oklahoma State will be the No. 1 seed in the Arizona Regional at the Gallery Golf Club in Marana while Oklahoma will be the No. 3 seed in the Corvallis Regional, it was announced by the NCAA Wednesday.

The Regionals will be held May 18-20. At each of the six NCAA Regional sites, the top five teams and the low individual on a non-advancing team will qualify for the NCAA Championships, scheduled for May 29-June 3 at Omni La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, Calif.

Oral Roberts University golfer Gustav Liljeberg will compete as an individual in Corvallis after winning the Summit League this week. Southern Methodist golfer Will Sides of Tulsa is in the field at the Bryan Regional at the Traditions Club at Texas A&M.

Oklahoma State is the defending national champion after claiming its 12th NCAA Division I Men’s Golf national championship in school history, and first since 2018. The Cowboys defeated Virginia, 3-1 in the 2025 national championship match at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa.

Oklahoma men’s golf will make its 15th consecutive NCAA postseason appearance under head coach Ryan Hybl. The selection marks the eighth straight season that Oklahoma has earned a top-three regional seed, the longest streak in program history. The Sooners, ranked No. 17 nationally, will look to continue one of the nation’s premier postseason runs, having advanced out of regional play and into the NCAA Championships every year since 2011, the country’s second longest active streak.

Led by All-America candidates Ryder Cowan and Jase Summy, Oklahoma enters postseason play with a 98-58-2 record and five top-five finishes this season. The Sooners also registered a record-setting victory at the Ka’anapali Classic, where they posted the lowest 54-hole team score in program history.

Tee times will be announced closer to the competition. Live scoring will be available via Clippd.
