KANSAS CITY, Mo. – (Championship Information) The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) has announced the competing teams and individuals for the 72nd Annual NAIA Men's Golf National Championship, running from May 21-24 at Dalton Golf and Country Club in Dalton, Ga.
The 156-player field consists of 19 automatic qualifying teams, who won their respective conference/independent tournament or were ranked in the final Top 25 for the conference's second automatic berth. Automatic berths are given to conferences that have six or more schools declare at the beginning of the season. Conferences with 12+ schools who finish the conference tournament are eligible for a second automatic qualifier, as long as the second team is rated in the final regular-season Coaches' Top 25 Poll.
Eleven teams reached the championship field through an at-large selection. At-large teams were determined using the final regular-season Coaches' Top 25 Poll released today. To access the poll, click here.
Truett McConnell is the only team from the Appalachian Athletic Conference (AAC) to qualify for the national championship as it was the tournament champion and the lone conference team ranked in the NAIA Top 25.
To receive an individual automatic berth, the conference medalist must be from a team who did not win the conference team title, or be an All-Tournament Team honoree from the previous year's national championships that did not qualify otherwise. To earn an at-large individual berth, the selection is determined by the NAIA Men's Golf Executive Committee.
First and second-round pairings and tee times are now out. To view them, click here.
