Stan State Heading to the NCAA’s for the Twenty-Fifth Time and Fifth Straight Time
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.--- Stan State men's golf team, under the guidance of head coach Brandon Christianson, received an at-large berth to the 2025 NCAA Division II Men's Golf Championship. This is the 25th time that the Warriors have been invited to the NCAA Division II Men's Golf Championships and this is the fifth straight time. Stan State will be heading to play in the 2025 NCAA Division II Men's Golf West/South Central Super Regional, May 8-10, at the par-72 Victoria Golf Club in Riverside, Calif.
The top ten teams from both the West Region and South Central will compete at the Super Regional in Riverside, Calif. The West Region is comprised of teams from the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA), PacWest Conference, and the Great Northwest Athletic Conference (GNAC). The South Region is comprised of teams from the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) and the Lone Star Conference.
This is the fifth straight time that the Warriors have received a bid to the NCAA's (2019, 2022, 2023, 2024 and this year 2025). The NCAA didn't have post-season in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID. The highest finish during the last five times that the Warriors have participated in the regionals is in 2022 when they just missed qualifying for Nationals. Stan State finished in fifth place with a three-under par 849 (279-288-282). Michael Jura finished tied for fourth with a six-under par 207 (66-74-67) just missing qualifying for nationals as an individual.
The Warriors are coming off a sixth-place finish at the 2025 CCAA Men's Golf Championship at the par-72 Sandpiper Golf Club in Santa Barbra, Calif. The Warriors host a 32-over par 902 (303-302-297). For the third straight year, Chris Chomyn earned All-Tournament honors for finishing in the top five. Chomyn shot a one-over par 217 (72-73-72) to finish in a tie for fourth place.
Besides Chomyn, Stan State head coach Brandon Christianson will be sending Ricky Sullivan, Jack Peters, Nate Jetton, and Chase Bird to the Super Regionals, May 8-10.
The last time that the Warriors played at The Victoria Club was the 2023 CCAA Men's Golf Championships in which they shot a six-under par 858 to finish in fourth place. Chris Ebster led the way for Stan State with his five-under par 211, which placed in third place with Chomyn shooting a four-under par 212 to finish tied for fourth place.
The 2025 NCAA Division II Championship is set for May 19-25 at the PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. The top six teams and the top two individuals from non-qualifying teams from the West/South Central Regional Championships will advance to the Nationals.
