We're sucking. Were in the top 5 for a long time (1st until GS took to the greens) but dropped like a lead balloon the 2nd round. Finished 5th last year. This is depressing because our men's team has been fairly decent the past 4-5 seasons.

Troy finished 2nd in round two.

GS nursing a 20 shot lead at the moment.

The Georgia Southern University golf program ranks as a perennial national power, and with the addition of the Bennett-Ramsey Golf Center, that tradition will continue for many years to come.

The 25-acre facility consists of a team clubhouse, a dedicated practice putting green, a three-green short-game area, a two-tiered practice tee, a driving range and three practice holes.

The Howard House clubhouse, named in honor of Mr. Arthur Howard and his family, totals 6,000 square feet. Included within the clubhouse are coaches’ offices, a locker room, a conference room, a kitchen, a team lounge area, an indoor putting lab, a club repair area, a computer and study area for student-athletes and a "Hall of Fame" entry way.

The three practice holes are each designed to be played from multiple tee boxes to maximize the practice facility and allow many different yardages to be played. The first hole is a 390-yard, par 4; hole two is a 185-yard, par 3, and the final hole is a 330-yard, par 4. Each green on the practice holes has been designed to have at least three distinct target areas, allowing for up to three different pin locations and making the facility a nine-hole course.

"The Bennett Ramsey Golf Facility and the Howard House have surpassed all of the dreams that I had for a practice facility here at Georgia Southern," said head coach Larry Mays. "We are so lucky to have such great support from our boosters, the community and our athletic administration to produce such a beautiful facility. The results of all of the hard work are apparent both by the players that we have been able to recruit to play for our team and by the ability to develop those players here at the practice facility. I look forward to the many years of success that the facility will bring to Georgia Southern Golf."

Don't forget about Georgia Southern's 18 hole course. Voted one of the best new golf courses of 2014 by Golf Digest

Advantage of having access to tons of cheap land.

haha. true that. I will be playing there Friday and Saturday this week.

And Georgia Southern all but seals the title. 1 player left with 3 holes to go, up by 17 strokes.

Great job guys!

2015 Sun Belt Golf Champions - Georgia Southern University!

Well that got ugly.

1st round killed us with a +14. The next 2 rounds we went a total of +5.

I wonder what the course conditions were today. Seems like everybody shot a high score. I figured our guys would play safe and give up a few strokes, but it seemed like nobody really played well.

Congrats boys! Hail Southern!

Will this gain us more scheduling favors with Benson like we saw in football? (Just wanted to beat the other conference members to the punch)

Congrats Eagles. Now make some noise in the big dance type thing!
