LONG BEACH, Calif. – Senior Tyler Schafer was one of 45 individuals chosen to compete alongside the qualifying teams for the 2022 NCAA Regionals for Men's Golf.
Schafer will be headed to one of three 14-team regional sites, where he and four other individuals will compete. Schafer was placed as the No. 3 seed for the Stockton Regional, which will be contested at The Reserve at Spanos Park and co-hosted by Pacific and Visit Stockton.
