FSU sports information:
The Florida State Men’s Golf team earned a No. 1 seed at the NCAA Stanford Regional held at Stanford Golf Course in California, announced on Wednesday. NCAA Regional play gets underway May 13-15, with the Top 5 teams from each of the six regionals earning a spot at the NCAA Men’s Golf Championship.
The announcement was made during Wednesday’s NCAA Men’s Golf Championship selection show on the GOLF Channel. The Seminoles must finish in the Top 5 of its 14-team regional, which also includes Ole Miss (2), Illinois (3), Texas A&M (4), Stanford (5), UCLA (6), SMU (7), Missouri (8), Fresno State (9), UNLV (10), Augusta (11), Liberty (12), Sacramento State (13) and Siena (14).
This year’s NCAA Men’s Golf Championship is held at a new site at the Omni La Costa Resort & Spa located in Carlsbad, Calif.
The Seminoles continue their impressive run of making 18 consecutive NCAA Regionals. FSU has made three consecutive trips to the NCAA Finals (Top 30), including reaching the match play semifinals last season and the match play quarterfinals in 2021.
A Seminole has won each of the last four stroke-play tournaments heading into NCAA Regionals. Sophomore Luke Clanton won three straight tournaments at the Seminole Intercollegiate (March 12), the Valspar Collegiate Invitational (March 26) and the Lewis Chitengwa Memorial (April 9). Senior Frederik Kjettrup was named co-champion of the ACC Championship on April 21.
FSU went to the Morgan Hill Regional last year near San Jose, which was won by Clanton.
The combination of Clanton and Kjettrup has formed one of collegiate golf’s best duos in the country, with Clanton holding a 69.30 stroke-play average and Kjettrup at 70.56. Clanton is ranked No. 2 nationally while Kjettrup is 37th.
Senior Gray Albright has come up big this year, sitting third on the team with a 71.22 stroke average and earning a victory at the Watersound Invitational.
Cole Anderson, Brett Roberts and Tyler Weaver help round out a strong and potent FSU lineup. FSU won the Jackson Stephens Cup back in the fall with a 3-2 victory over Arizona in match play. FSU also owns match-play wins this year over Florida (3-2) and Georgia Tech (3-0).
The Seminoles won the Valspar Collegiate Invitational for the time in program history, shooting 19-under while Clanton earned the player title and received an invitation to the 2025 Valspar Championship on the PGA TOUR.
