Nate McCoy makes it to the NCAA Tournament!

For the first time since the Regional format was implemented in 1989, Nate McCoy becomes the first Cyclone to play in the NCAA Championships. It maybe have taken McCoy four years to accomplish his goal, but he did it! His professional career will have to be put on hold. McCoy fired a 212 (73-68-71) to finish in seventh place. They take the top 5 teams and the first individual that is not on a team going already to the NCAA Championships.

McCoy is on pace to break the school's single-season scoring mark, produced eight top-10 performances and won two tournaments this season. McCoy expresses his excitement to go to LA and play on such a great  course. The tournament will be held May 29-June 3 at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif.

The team finished tied for 9th and only 10 shots back of the final team qualifier, Memphis.

Good luck to Nate and we wish you the best of luck from ISU! Go Cyclones!!!
