2 GEORGIA TECH GOLF 2012-13
TECH GOLF NOTEBOOKJackets Return Five of Top Six Players Georgia Tech returns fi ve of the top six players who carried the Yellow Jackets to their fourth consecutive Atlantic Coast Conference Championship and a berth in the NCAA Southeast Regional. James White, a two-time All-American, three-time All-ACC performer and co-recipient of the 2012 Byron Nelson Award, is the only departure from the 2011-12 unit, graduating as a two-time ACC Golf Scholar-Athlete of the Year. But the other fi ve players who logged most of the starts for the Yellow Jackets combined for 16 top-10 performances and seven other fi nishes in the top 20. All fi ve had stroke averages under 73 and fi nished the spring ranked among the naitonβs top 150 in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index. Tech returning core group includes juniors Richard Werenski (No. 120), who won the Porter Cup this summer, Bo Andrews (No. 99) and Seth Reeves (No. 118), as well as talented sophomores Anders Albertson (No. 32), an All-ACC choice, and Ollie Schniederjans (No. 129), who reached the match play portion of the U.S. Amateur. They are backed by fi fth-year senior Minghao Wang, who was limited to three rounds last year because of a wrist injury and junior Drew Czuchry, a transfer from Akron who played in two events last year. Joining the fold are a pair of talented freshmen, including the nationβs top-ranked junior player in Shun Yat (Jason) Hak, a native of Hong Kong who moved to the United States at age 11 and attended high school in the Orlando area, Michael Hines of Acworth, Ga., the No. 2 junior in the state of Georgia, also is competing for a traveling spot this fall.
Worth Noting β’ Georgia Tech fi nished the spring ranked 8th in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index and No. 11 in the Golfstat rankings. The Yellow Jackets have fi nished the year ranked in the top 10 of either one or both rankings every year since 2000. β’ The Yellow Jackets had a head-to-head winning percentage of 81.8 against the nationβs 10th-most diffi cult schedule. β’ The fi vesome who played in the NCAA regional had 31 top-20 fi nishes between them, 21 top-10s and nine top-5s. β’ Six Tech players fi nished the 2012 spring ranked among the nationβs top 130 in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index - White No. 24, Albertson No. 32, Andrews No. 99, Reeves No. 118, Werenski No. 120, and Schniederjans No. 129. β’ Techβs 2011-12 team fi nished the year a collective 2-under-par. β’ The Yellow Jacketsβ average drop (non-counting) score was 75.89, the second-best fi gure in the nation behind third-ranked UCLA. β’ Tech scored a perfect 1000 on the NCAAβs Academic Progress Report for the ninth consecutive year, every year since the annual report was established in 2003-04.
Jackets Hosting 2013 NCAA Championship For the fi rst time, Georgia Tech is the host institution for the NCAA Cham-pionship fi nals, which will be contested this year from May 27-June 2 at the Capital City Club Crabapple in Alpharetta, Ga. Tech has hosted three NCAA regionals in past years, in 2002 at Ansley Golf Club at Settindown Creek, in 2007 at the Golf Club of Georgia, and in 2010 at the Capital City Club Crabapple. The Yellow Jackets also will play fi ve of their nine regular-season events within the borders of Georgia (see schedule on page 1), including its own United States Collegiate Championship at the Golf Club of Georgia, and will host the PING/Golfweek Preview Invitational, annually held at the site of the NCAA Championship,
Tech Continues to Dominate ACC Championship Georgia Tech won its fourth consecutive Atlantic Coast Conference championship in 2012, sixth in the last seven years, leading wire-to-wire for a 7-shot victory over Virginia at the Old North State Club. The Yellow Jackets has led each of the last four ACC Championships wire-to-wire and posted the dayβs low score in nine of the 12 rounds. Four of Techβs fi ve players fi nished in the top 10 in 2012 - Anders Albertson T4, Bo Andrews, Richard Werenski and Ollie Schniederjans each T7. All-American James White tied for 16th and counted his score only once in three rounds. Techβs 14 ACC menβs golf titles in history ranks second among conference schools behind Wake Forest (18). Tech has won nine of its conference titles
under current head coach Bruce Heppler, fi ve of those outright (1999, 2001, 2002, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012) and two shared (2006, 2007). The Yellow Jackets won fi ve championships (1985, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994) under previous head coach Puggy Blackmon. Eight of Techβs ACC titles have occurred at the Old North State Club, the fi rst occurring in 1999 by 10 strokes over North Carolina and Duke. Tech won the 2011 crown with a tournament record score of 831 (-33) and by a record 20 strokes. Tech shared the 2006 title with North Carolina, and the 2007 crown with Virginia Tech. Georgia Techβs individual ACC Champions include Bob McDonnell in 1985, David Duval in 1991 and 1993, Mikko Rantanen in 1994, Bryce Molder in 2000, Cameron Tringale in 2006, Chesson Hadley in 2010 and Paul Haley in 2011.
Techβs NCAA Championship History Georgia Tech reached the NCAA Finals 24 times since 1985, a number surpassed by only three schools in that period, and has posted seven top-8 fi nishes in the last 11 tries. The Yellow Jackets tied for 10th in the fi rst-year of the 54-hole stroke-play/match-play format, but qualifi ed for match play each of the last two years by fi nishing third and second in the stroke play competi-tion Tech lost to eventual champion Augusta State by the score of 3-2 in the match play quarterfi nals each of the last two years. Tech has been the runner-up in the NCAA Championship four times (1993, 2000, 2002 and 2005), more than any team in the history of the champion-ship except Houston, Michigan, Texas and Wake Forest, who also have four, and Oklahoma State, which has fi ve. In 1993 and 2002, the Yellow Jackets led after 54 holes, but fi nished second by one shot to Florida in 1993, and by four shots to Minnesota in 2002. In 2000, the Yellow Jackets rallied to tie Oklahoma State after 72 holes, but lost to the Cowboys on the fi rst hole of a playoff. Tech and OSU matched the lowest 72-hole team score in NCAA Championship history (36-under-par 1,116) at the Grand National Lake Course in Opelika, Ala. In 2005, Tech fi nished 11 shots behind Georgia, and seven shots ahead of third-place Washington. Since Bruce Heppler became Techβs coach, the Jackets have fi nished in the top 8 nine times, with one 10th-place and one 11th-place. Three Tech players have won national collegiate championships. Troy Matteson did it most recently in 2002 at Ohio State. Watts Gunn (1927) and Charlie Yates (1934) won national titles under a match play format before the NCAA took sponsorship of the championship in 1939. Other top-10 fi nishers for Tech include David Duval (runner-up in 1991 and 1993, T-8 in 1990), Bill McDonald (T-2 in 1988), Bunky Henry (2nd in 1967), Roberto Castro (3rd in 2005), Nacho Gervas (T-3 in 1986), Paul Haley (T9 in 2010), Kris Mikkelsen (T-4 in 2001), Stewart Cink (T-5 in 1994), Bryce Molder (6th in 1998), Matt Weibring (6th in 2000) and James White (T8 in 2011).
Tech and Match Play The 2009 NCAA Championship featured a new twist with the team cham-pion determined via match play. The top eight teams after 54 holes of stroke play advance to a match play tournament format. During the match-play portion of the championships, each match is worth one point with all fi ve players participating. The fi rst team to win three points within the team match advances or, in the case of the championship match, is declared the national champion. It is a format that Bruce Heppler has supported vigorously. Under Hep-pler, Georgia Tech fi nished in the top eight of the NCAA Finals seven times in 10 tries under the 72-hole, stroke-play format. The Yellow Jackets fi nished third and second, respectively, in the stroke-play portion the NCAA Championship the last two years and lost in the fi rst round of match play to Augusta State (3-2), the eventual national champion each time. Tech has had success in match-play events in recent years, reaching the fi nals of the Callaway Collegiate Match Play Championship four times in six appearances.

HEAD COACH BRUCE HEPPLER18th Year at Tech β’ ACC Coach of the Year 7 times β’ 9 ACC Championships
If a consistently high level of success over a long period of time is the measure of a great program,
then Georgia Techβs golf program under Bruce Heppler would certainly meet the standard. One of the top coaches in collegiate golf, Heppler has guided the Yellow Jackets to the NCAA Champion-ship every year since 1998, and helped author nine top-8 fi nishes in the Finals, including three runner-up showings. During his tenure, Tech has won or shared nine Atlantic Coast Conference titles, including the title outright each of the last four years (2009, 2010, 2011, 2012) and a share of the champion-ship in 2006 and 2007. Only two ACC coaches have led their teams to more ACC titles than has Heppler. The Yellow Jackets have captured or shared 36 team titles overall. He was named ACC Coach of the Year in 2012 for the seventh time, more than any coach in ACC history. Since 2000, the Yellow Jackets have fi nished in the top 10 of the fi nal Golfstat rankings 10 times, and in the fi nal Golfweek/Sagarin top 10 eleven times. Tech has not fi nished lower than 14th in either ranking in any year. All these accomplishments, and more, factored into Techβs golf program being judged the best in the nation in the September, 2005, issue of Golf Digest magazine, and No. 2 in the 2006 edition. Heppler has recruited and developed his share of star players as well. The Yellow Jackets have had at least a pair of All-Atlantic Coast Conference honorees in 14 of the last 15 years, and landed four members of the team on the squad twice (2005, 2011). Tech has had at least two players earn All-America honors 12 of the last 14 years, and James White became the Jacketsβ 19th fi rst-team selection in 2011. Three of his players, Matt Kuchar, Bryce Molder and Troy Matteson, have been named national players of the year. Five of his Tech players are members of the PGA Tour, including Roberto Castro, Matt Kuchar, Troy Matteson, Bryce Molder and Cameron Tringale, while Paul Haley, Nicholas Thompson and Matt Weibring, have status on the Nationwide Tour. Three others, including John-Tyler Griffi n, Chesson Hadley, Kevin Larsen, Kyle Scott and Chan Song, are also playing professionally either in the United States or abroad. During the summer of 2003, Heppler served as the head coach of the United Statesβ Palmer Cup team, which faced off with a team of European collegiate players in Kiawah Island, S.C. Kuchar, Molder, Castro, Hadley, Tringale and White have all played for the USA in Palmer Cup competition. Kuchar, Molder, Thompson and Tringale have represented the United States in the Walker Cup matches. On the conference level since 1985, when the Yellow Jackets won their fi rst ACC Championship, Tech has earned more NCAA Championship berths than any team except Clemson. The Jackets have earned more top-10, more top-5 and more top-2 fi nishes in NCAA Championship competition than any other ACC team. Tech also has had more All-America selections (55) than any other ACC team during the same period except the Tigers. Nationally, only Arizona State, Florida and Oklahoma State have had greater success in NCAA Championship competition and in All-America selec-tions over the same period of time. Since 1997, however, when Heppler got the Tech program back on its feet, the Yellow Jackets have fared just as well head-to-head against all those teams in medal play at the NCAA Champion-ship (9-4 vs. Arizona State, 7-6 vs. Oklahoma State, 9-4 vs. Florida). His players have been just as successful in the classroom. Techβs golf program has been recognized with a perfect Academic Progress Report score of 1000 for seven straight years, and every senior has graduated. Twelve different players under Heppler have been named All-America Scholars by the Golf Coaches Association of America, which requires a mini-mum 3.2 GPA and participation in at least 75 percent of a teamβs events. Two, All-Americans Bryce Molder and Roberto Castro, have received the NCAAβs Top VIII Award, an honor given to eight student-athletes from all sports each year and recognizes those who excel in their sport and in the classroom, and exhibit high character, leadership and service to others. It didnβt take long for Heppler to restore the glory to Techβs golf program

following a couple of lean years in the mid-1990s. After recruiting future All-Americans Kuchar and Molder, Heppler had the Yellow Jackets back in the NCAA Tournament in his third season, where they fi nished third, just four shots off the lead. Tech also was ranked No. 1 in the nation during the course of the year and won the NCAA East Regional. Even better things were to come as Tech captured the fi rst of its ACC titles under Heppler in 1999. In 2000 the Yellow Jackets came the closest to an NCAA Championship in their history, tying for fi rst after 72 holes with Oklahoma State before losing a one-hole playoff. On the year, Tech captured four team titles and fi nished in the top four in each event it entered. During the 2001 campaign, the Jackets won their second ACC crown in three years, the second under Heppler, captured a school-record-tying fi ve tournament wins during the year and fi nished fourth in the NCAA Champion-ship. For his efforts, Heppler was named ACC Coach of the Year and guided three All-Americans in Molder, who was also the consensus National Player of the Year, Matteson and Kris Mikkelsen. In 2002, Heppler led the Yellow Jackets to arguably the best season in school history, as Tech captured seven team titles and fi nished second at the NCAA Championship. In the process, Heppler earned National and ACC Coach of the Year honors. During the year, the Jackets won the schoolβs eighth ACC title, while placing all fi ve starters on GCAA All-America teams. Under Hepplerβs tutelage, Matteson became the third Tech player to win the national individual title. Tech has dominated the Atlantic Coast Conference in recent years, win-ning fi ve of the last six titles and the last three in a row. The Yellow Jackets have been to the NCAA Tournament every year since 1998, and only once in that time failed to advance out of a regional. In the three years the NCAA has conducted the current medal/match play format for the championship, Tech has advanced to match play twice. A 52-year-old native of St. George, Utah, Heppler has demonstrated his strength as a recruiter by attracting both National Players of the Year during 1997-98 and the ACC Players of the Year for 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001. His fi rst recruit at Tech was Kuchar, who won the 1997 U.S. Amateur Cham-pionship and was named the ACC Player of the Year and the Fred Haskins National Player of the Year in 1998. Molder was the Jack Nicklaus Player of the Year in 1998 and in 2001, along with being named the ACC Player of the Year in 1999, 2000 and 2001. Heppler, a deanβs list student at Brigham Young, earned his bachelorβs degree in accounting from BYU in 1985, and later received his masterβs de-gree in sport management from Massachusetts in 1988. He played golf for one year at Dixie Junior College in St. George before transferring to Brigham Young.

After a year and a half as assistant coach at one of the nationβs fastest-growing collegiate
golf programs, Brennan Webb joined the Georgia Tech golf program as an assistant coach in De-cember of 2012. Webb comes to Tech from the University of South Florida, whose menβs golf program posted seven top-10 fi nishes, including three in the top 5, during the 2011-12 season. He also helped mentor Trey Valentine, who was named BIG EAST Freshman of the Year, assisted with fund-raising efforts, recruiting and scheduling, helped manage the team facility and directed the USF Invitational Tournament. During his time with the Bulls, he signed two of the top fi ve players in Florida for the program in his fi rst recruiting class, and helped USF rise to a na-tional ranking of No. 87 from one that had been 191st in the pre-season. Webb replaced Christian Newton, who left Tech in August to become the head coach at Colorado State. βWe took some time to fi nd a person with the type of background we were looking for, and weβre very happy with Brennanβs decision to join our program,β said Heppler, who is in his 18th year at Tech. βAt East Tennessee State, he played on teams that were ranked among the top fi ve in the country and played in NCAA Championships. He pursued a professional career, and through the various tours he was able to work his way up to the nationwide Tour, so that experience is a tremendous resource for the players in our program. He has a reputation as a relentless recruiter, and he has a sincere and upbeat personality.β Webb took the assistant coaching position at USF after playing several years on various professional circuits and in 11 different countries. He was a fully exempt member on the PGA Web.com Tour in 2009, logging three top 25 fi nishes. In 2011, he competed in the Zurich Classic on the PGA Tour. He reached the second stage of the PGA Tour Qualifying School eight times in nine attempts. His wins as a pro include the 2010 Coors Light Open in Fort Myers, as well as victories on the Hooters Tour and in Canada. βMy family and I are very excited to join the Georgia Tech Athletics family and look forward to being part of the high standard of excellence that the golf program has achieved and maintained for many years,β said Webb. βThe opportunity to learn from Coach Heppler and be part of one of the best golf programs in the country is something that I am very thankful for.β A native of Ontario, Webb represented Canada in several international amateur tournaments, including appearances in the U.S., British, Canadian and Western amateur championships. He also represented Canada in the World Junior Championship. Additionally, Webb has been a part-time PGA Tour caddy for Garrett Willis, John Huston and Robert Damron between 2002-11, and was owner-operator of DSP Golf Academy at the South Muskoka Golf and Country Club in his hometown of Bracebridge, Ontario from 1998-2001. Webb played collegiately at East Tennessee State, whose team was ranked No. 1 in the nation and fi nished third in the NCAA Championship during his junior year and won three Southern Conference titles. He earned his bachelorβs degree in fi nance from East Tennessee State in December of 1997. Webb and his wife, Carrie, have two daughters, Nalla, 3, and Skye, 1.

ADMINISTRATION
DR. G.P. βBUDβ PETERSONPresident
Since assuming the role as Georgia Techβs 11th president more than three years ago, Dr. G.
P. βBudβ Peterson has engaged the Georgia Tech and greater Atlanta community in developing and implementing a 25-year strategic plan, realigned Techβs research organization for greater effec-tiveness, championed efforts to strengthen the Instituteβs leadership in innovation, expanded strategic partnerships, and worked to maximize Techβs impact in the state, region, nation, and the world. Peterson came to Georgia Tech from the University of Colorado at Boulder, where he served as chancellor. Prior to that, he served as provost at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York. He served on the faculty and in leadership positions at Texas A&M University for 19 years. He has worked for NASA and the National Science Foundation. Throughout his career, Peterson has played an active role in helping to establish the national education and research agendas, serving on numerous industry, government and academic task forces and committees. A distin-guished scientist, he was appointed in 2008 by U.S. President George W. Bush to serve through 2014 as a member of the National Science Board, which oversees the National Science Foundation (NSF) and advises the President and Congress on national policy related to science and engineering research and education. In 2010 he was named by U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke as a member of the National Advisory Council on Innovation and Entrepreneur-ship. This group is focused on helping the U.S. develop policies that foster entrepreneurship and identify new ways to take innovations and creative ideas from the laboratory to the marketplace in order to create jobs, develop new businesses and drive economic growth. In June 2011 he was named by President Barack Obama to the Advanced Manufacturing Partnership steering committee. The partnership is bringing together industry, universities and the federal government to identify and invest in the key emerging technologies to help U.S. manufacturers improve cost, quality and speed of production in order to remain globally competi-tive. He is a fellow of both the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), and received the AIAA Distinguished Service Award for 2011. His research has focused on phase change heat transfer and spacecraft thermal control. He is widely published, authoring or co-authoring 16 books or book chapters, 200 refereed journal articles, and more than 140 conference publications. He also holds nine patents with two others pending. Peterson earned a bachelorβs degree in mechanical engineering, a second bachelorβs degree in mathematics, and a masterβs degree in mechani-cal engineering, all from Kansas State University. While an undergraduate at Kansas State, Peterson lettered three years as a tight end/wide receiver for the Wildcats football team. He earned a PhD in mechanical engineering from Texas A&M University. President Peterson and Techβs fi rst lady, Valerie H. Peterson, actively participate in campus and community events, meeting and working alongside alumni, faculty, staff, students, parents, and civic and government groups. They have become familiar faces within the Georgia Tech community. Students might fi nd them listening to a Yellow Jacket Marching Band performance after a game, supporting the swimming and diving team, or joining in a cleanup day in neighborhoods surrounding the campus. In addition, they have served as ambassadors for Georgia Tech throughout the state, the region, the na-tion, and even on Techβs international campuses. The Petersons have been married for 38 years and have four adult children. As the newest member of the Association of American Universities and a top ten public research university, Georgia Tech has outstanding programs in architecture, computing, engineering, liberal arts, management and the sciences. With more than 21,000 students and 130,000 living alumni who work in business, industry and government throughout the world, Tech has become internationally recognized for the quality of its educational and research programs.

Techβs three team trophies, the Robert Tyre Jones Award for the teamβs outstanding player, the Watts Gunn Trophy for the teamβs most improved and dedicated player, and the Charles Yates Cup for academic achievement, are also displayed here. As part of Techβs renovation of Bobby Dodd Stadium, the renovated golf center was completed in the fall of 2003 along with the expanded north end zone of the stadium.
DELLINGER GOLF CENTER
Thanks to the generosity of four supporters of the Georgia Tech golf pro-gram, the Yellow Jackets can take advantage of a Tom Fazio-designed
practice facility conveniently located adjacent to campus between 14th and 16th Streets. βWe really needed to have our own place to practice, and Jim Dellinger, Julian Saul, Gene Brooks and Dan Yates were willing to make that happen for us,β said head coach Bruce Heppler, referring to the four donors for the facility, which will be expanded and updated within the next couple of years. A tremendous asset for the team, the facility allows the Yellow Jackets to practice a wide array of skills. Covering eight acres of land and more than 320 yards in length from one end to the other, the range includes two bent grass greens, one for chipping and one for putting. Tee boxes are located at both ends, as well as several fairway bunkers from which players can hit iron shots, and there are designed wedge areas to work on the short game. There is no shot in golf that Techβs players are not able to work on. βPlus, they are able to practice with the balls they play with in competition rather than range balls, so they can fi nd out more about distance, control and accuracy,β says Heppler. βWhen you have your own place and you can throw down your own balls and practice anywhere you want, thatβs a much better situation than going to a driving range. βItβs four blocks from the new Olympic housing. It makes practicing more convenient and allows our players to use their time better. And, of course, itβs still backed up by our ability to play on some of the best golf courses in the Southeast.β

When the Golf Club of Georgia and Georgia Tech joined forces with the idea of hosting
one of the nationβs premier collegiate golf events in 2005, the idea was to bring together the nationβs top golf programs to play one of the top golf facili-ties in the state of Georgia and enjoy a fi rst-class golf experience. The United States Collegiate Championship was the result, and the event has been a rousing success, drawing rave reviews from coaches and players alike. The fi rst four events were played during the spring, but due to scheduling confl icts, the tournament was not played during the 2009-10 academic year. It then became a major event on the collegiate fall schedule in 2010. The 2008 event, in which Clemson captured its second title in four years, attracted the nationβs top 11 teams according to the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index, making it the strong fi eld of any regular-season collegiate event. βThis event is in a class by itself in college golf,β said East Tennessee State coach Fred War-ren. βEverything associated with the tournament was fi rst-class in every sense of the word.β βWithout a doubt,β said Georgia Coach Chris Haack, β(the USCC) is a Major on the college cir-cuit.β
βIt really does kind of give you a feel of Au-gusta,β said Wake Forest alumnus Webb Simpson, the 2005 Southern Amateur champion who had a fi rst- and second-place fi nish in the event. βTo have a tournament of this magnitude at a facility we feel is the best in the country is very exciting,β said Georgia Tech coach Bruce Heppler, whose program has enjoyed a long-standing rela-tionship with The Golf Club of Georgia. βKnowing and appreciating the commitment and enthusiasm the staff and the members hold toward the event, it makes us feel very comfortable that it will become a very special tournament.β The competition and golf experience of United States Collegiate Championship are as fi rst-class as the quality of its teams. Players wear long pants and have caddies. The course is not roped, allowing galleries an intimate opportunity to walk with the competitors, as is the case with the clubβs annual Georgia Cup match between the United States and British Amateur champions. Rules offi cials and scoring volunteers also accompany each group, giving the competitors the feel of a championship event. βAs far as college tournaments go, the U.S. Collegiate Championship did, in fact, raise the bar,β
wrote Ron Balicki in Golfweek magazine. βProviding a great golf course is one thing. Providing all the extras and the unsurpassed hospitality is another, and is what pushed the bar to new heights of what a college tournament could be.β The Golf Club of Georgia, a 36-hole Arthur Hills facility north of Atlanta named βBest New Private Course in Americaβ in 1991 by Golf Digest, also served as the host site for the 2007 NCAA East Regional Championship, with Georgia Tech as the host institution. The Lakeside Course, on which both tournaments have been played, measures 7,020 yards and plays to a par of 72.

The annual Carpet Capital Collegiate, a staple of the fall collegiate golf schedule for many of
the nationβs top golf programs for more than 20 years, annually hosts one of the toughest fi elds on one of the most challenging golf courses that stage college events. βWith the excellent ACC and SEC teams in the tournament, outcome plays a signifi cant role in which teams are selected for postseason competi-tion,β said Tech head coach Bruce Heppler. Georgia Tech has won the event six times, including three in a row most recently between 1999 and 2001, and has been the runner-up fi ve other times. Future PGA stars such as Techβs Stewart Cink and Troy Matteson, Clemsonβs Lucas Glover, Kyle Stanley and D.J. Trahan, and NC Stateβs Tim Clark have won medalist honors. But former Yellow Jacket Bryce Molder (pictured above right) cap-tured the event three consecutive times between 1998 and 1999. Three different formats have been used for the event. In the inaugural 1989 event, the low fi ve of six scores by round were used for team totals, while the four low scores on each hole were used in 1991. All others have used the standard low four-of-fi ve rounds each day counting toward the team score. The Carpet Capital Collegiate is played at The Farm Golf Club, the 6,896-yard, par-72 course designed by Tom Fazio, located in Rocky Face, Ga., just outside the city of Dalton in Northwest Georgia. The tournament takes its name from the city, which is home to some of the largest carpet manufactur-ers in the world. The Farm has been recognized as
one of the nationβs premier modern facilities. The original idea for the tournament, con-ceived by former Tech coach Puggy Blackmon and born with the help of many Tech alumni in the Dalton area, was to pit the six best teams each from the Atlantic Coast Conference and the Southeastern Conference, with the winner claiming bragging rights. The event was envisioned as a tribute to ama-
CARPET CAPITAL COLLEGIATE
teur and collegiate golf in the South, particularly Georgia, where Bobby Jones and The Masters have contributed to the heritage of the sport. The event has grown to include many nationally prominent programs outside the ACC and SEC area, and better than half of the tournament participants each year are ranked among the nationβs top 25 teams. The permanent Carpet Capital Collegiate champions trophy is named for Lowell Fritz, golf professional at Dalton Golf and Country Club. Fritz has long been dedicated to junior golf and the youth of the Dalton area. Boys or girls, members or non-members, Fritz has taken many hours of his personal time to teach the game of golf.

TECH COACHING HISTORYH.E. DENNISON β’ 1931-55 A professor of economics and social science, as well as the director of industrial management, H.E. Dennison served as Georgia Techβs fi rst golf coach from 1931-55. He shepherded a program which had already earned success on the national stage when Watts Gunn won the national collegiate championship in 1927. Collegiate golf was strictly a dual match sport in Den-nisonβs time, and Tech went three straight years from 1933-35 without losing a match. Dennison had the distinction of coaching such standouts as Charlie Yates, the 1934 national collegiate champion, 1938 British Amateur champion and three-time Walker Cup team member, as well as the 1938 Southern Intercol-legiate champion Tommy Barnes and 1948 Southeastern Conference champion Albert Swann. He also led the Yellow Jackets to their fi rst NCAA Championship appearance as a team in 1947.
TOMMY PLAXICO β’ 1956-82 Likeable Tommy Plaxico, a former Georgia Tech star of the cinders in the 1940s, served as the Yellow Jacketsβ golf coach from January of 1956 until he retired in 1982, an era which saw the landscape of college golf evolve from schools playing dual matches exclusively to playing stroke-play tournaments. Among his players were future PGA Tour star Larry Mize, 1967 NCAA runner-up Bunky Henry and 1999 U.S. Senior Amateur champion Bill Ploeger. Plaxico, a contemporary of such Tech coaching luminaries as Bobby Dodd, Whack Hyder and Jim Luck, was a regular on the Tech track team for three years and was captain of the 1941 squad. After serving four years as a Navy fi ghter pilot in World War II, Plaxico returned to campus to receive his degree in industrial management in 1946. He immediately joined the Tech faculty as a member of the Physical Training staff, a capacity in which he served until he retired. Plaxico, also an avid tennis player, served as an assistant track coach for fi ve years and was in charge of Georgia Techβs intramural program.
PUGGY BLACKMON β’ 1982-95 The arrival of Puggy Blackmon signaled a new era in golf at Georgia Tech, keeping the Yellow Jackets in line with the way college golf was growing. The South Carolina native came from a teaching and professional golf background, and laid the foundation for the stature of the program today. Heavily involved in junior golf, Blackmon immediately began recruiting top junior players, set about raising money for the program and started the booster club which continues to support Tech golf today. Within three years, he guided the Yellow Jackets to their fi rst Atlantic Coast Conference championship, and Tech became a perennial top-25 program. That led to the program being invited to compete in bigger and better events, and the Jackets would go on to win fi ve ACC titles, compete in 11 NCAA Champi-onships and win 33 tournaments overall during his tenure. He recruited and coached PGA Tour players Stewart Cink, Michael Clark II, David Duval and Tripp Isenhour.

Bobby Jones β’ Atlanta, Ga.On Sept. 27, 1930, Robert Tyre Jones, Jr., of Atlanta walked off the 11th
green at the Merion Cricket Club and into history. No one before him had won golfβs four major championships in a single year. No one has done it since. No one might ever do it again. βIt may be 60 years, if then, before we see another Grand Slam,β said Joe Dey, former commissioner of the PGA Tour and former executive director of the United States Golf Association. βYou never say never,β said Ben Hogan, who was 18 when Jones won the Slam and remains the only golfer to win three professional majors in one year. βBut considering the times β there are so many more good players β itβs improbable that any player will win all four.β Of all the single-season sustained records of excellence in major sports, Jonesβ mark has stood the longest. Longer than Babe Ruthβs 60 home runs, a record that last 34 years after he set it in 1927; longer than Joe DiMaggioβs 1941 hitting streak of 56 games, which is still alive after 49 years; longer than Wilt Chamberlainβs 50.4 points-per-game average, set in 1961-62; longer than Bryon Nelsonβs PGA Tour streak of 11 straight victories and 18 overall in 1945. The four tournaments Jones won βthe national Open and amateur championships of the United States and Britainβoriginally were known as the βImpregnable Quadrilateral.β That term eventually evolved into the Grand Slam, a term that stuck even when the PGA Championship and the Masters replaced the two amateur tournaments in the mythical foursome. To understand the magnitude of Jonesβ deed, consider that in the ensu-ing 60 years only four playersβHogan, Gene Sarazen, Gary Player and Jack Nicklausβin their careers have won each of the four events that make up the modern Slam. In golfβs record books, Hogan comes across as the most serious chal-lenger to Jones record when in 1953 the Texan won the Masters, U.S. Open and British Open. But because there was some overlap in dates of the British Open and the PGA Championship, the possibility of Hogan completing the Slam never existed. Perhaps the most incredible thing about Jonesβ Slam is that he planned it. He didnβt have a name for it, nor was he glory-seeking. His reasons were purely personal. Being an amateur golfer, his fi nances and family obligations would not allow him to play in all four tournaments after 1930. As it turned out, he didnβt have to. He announced his retirement from competitive golf a few weeks after winning the U.S. Amateur. He was 28. Dey, then a 23-year-old sportswriter for The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, was there at Merion in Ardmore, Pa., when Jones completed the Grand Slam. Now 83, Dey said Jonesβ performance was βsimply unbelievable. βI saw every shot, and I havenβt seen anyone since as dominant as Jones was in that Amateur,β Dey said. βNone of his matches went past the 14th hole. He cruised along. Considering the pressure and the crowdsβyou have to remember in those days the fairways werenβt ropedβit was a remarkable performance by a remarkable player.β Dey has seen all the great players and says only Hogan and Nicklaus equaled Jones in fi guring out a way to win. βIf Nicklaus couldnβt do it, I donβt think it could be done. Maybe Hogan could have, but there wasnβt that much emphasis on the Grand Slam during his day. I donβt see anyone out there today who knows how to win like they did and like Jones did. βAlso, itβs just too hard now because there are too many good players to expect one to win all four, and too, I believe the intense media attention given to the majors creates tremendous pressure that begins to build when someone wins the fi rst two.β Hogan, now 78, agrees about the media pressure. βItβs incredible,β he said, βmuch more so than when I played. Because it was impossible for me to play in all four in 1953, there was none of that.β Dey credits Jones with the Grand Slam transformation from two amateurs and two Opens to todayβs four pro majors. βWhen Jones retired, there was not another amateur of his ability, and after he started Augusta National, and the Masters took hold, the attention turned away from the amateurs to the profes-sionals,β he said. βWhat Jones did was win the Grand Slam, then without realizing it, cre-ated another one.β How good was Jones? From 1923 through 1930, Jones won 13 major
ALL-TIME GREATS
national titles in the U.S. and Great Britain, 62 percent of the championships he entered. In the last 11 British and U.S. Opens in which he played, he fi nished no worse than second in 10, winning seven times. And from the time he was 14 to the time he was 28, no player ever beat him twice in championship match play. It also must be noted that Jones was hardly a full-time golfer. Often he would go months without picking up a club. Instead, he studied mechanical engineering at Georgia Tech, got a degree in English literature at Harvard, dabbled in real estate and then attended law school at Emory. In his 13 years in major championship competition, he was a student, high school or college, in nine of them. He played only 52 tournaments in that span, an average of four a year, and won 23. Though Jones was born and raised in Atlanta, there is no public display of his memorabilia. His old locker remains at East Lake Country Club menβs locker room and several pictures hang on the walls of the grill room. Most of his trophies and his famous putter, Calamity Jane, are on display in a showcase in the Jones Room at the Atlanta Athletic Club. Jones died in the early evening of Dec. 18, 1971. He played his last round of golf in 1948, the year he was stricken with syringomyeliam, a disease that attacks the central nervous system. His burial is in Atlantaβs Oakland Cemetery. His tombstone reads: Robert Tyre Jones, Jr. Born 1902 Died 1971 No other words were thought necessary.
This story was written by the late Tom McCollister, who covered golf for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and paid this tribute to Bobby Jones on the 60th anniversary of his Grand Slam, in the Sept. 27, 1990, edition of the Journal and Constitution.

ALL-TIME GREATSCharlie Yates β’ Atlanta, Ga.Charlie Yates, a link to Atlantaβs vast golf
history who later shepherded the cityβs arts community into the future, was once heralded by Life magazine as owning βthe best grin in golf.β He didnβt mind using it either, whether to woo the English crowds while he was win-ning the 1938 British Amateur champion-ship or while heading the effort to raise the $20 million that built the High Museum. A participant in the cityβs history for much of the 20th century, it is not inappropriate he be remembered fi rst for that smile and a benevolent demeanor that underscored his life. Yates, 92, died October 17, 2005 at his home in Buckhead. Mentored by Bobby Jones - he in fact played with Jones in his fi nal round in 1948 at East Lake Golf Club - Yates was national college champion while at Georgia Tech (1934), a two-time Walker Cup competitor (1936 and 1938) and was captain of the U.S. Walker team in 1953. He seized the international limelight at the 1938 British Amateur at Royal Troon. Beating two U.S. and British Amateur champions along his eight-match campaign, he struck a tone with the British galleries who were not then so easily charmed by foreigners taking away their titles. Afterward, the legend-ary British golf author Bernard Darwin wrote, βThere has been no invading Champion more popular than Charlie Yates, whose cheerfulness and humor, of his own particular brand, made everybody like him.β Yates played 11 times in the Masters, including the inaugural tournament in 1934. βThere wasnβt any strict rule about who was eligible to play in the Masters then,β he once told The Augusta Chronicle. βBob invited some of his friends, such as myself.β He tied for 21st that year and twice was low amateur, but his most memo-rable Masters came in 1935. Yates was playing in the group ahead when Gene Sarazen made double eagle on the par-5 15th to force a playoff he won the next day. That shot put the Masters on the map. Yatesβ amateur career, except for playing the Masters, ended with World War II when he was drafted into the Army. He transferred to the Navy and spent 30 months as a lieutenant on the destroyer USS Mayo, which was struck by enemy fi re during the invasion of Italy. For nearly 50 years, he served on the Mastersβ Press Committee, a con-stant presence in the media quarters and, to many who returned to Augusta National year after year, a Masters tradition in himself. βI am deeply saddened by the passing of Charlie Yates,β Augusta National chairman Hootie Johnson said. βCharlie was an outstanding amateur golfer and a member who was linked to Bobby Jones and the clubβs history, attending every Masters through 2003. He will be greatly missed.β But it was in 1973 that Yates began some of his most lasting work. He accepted Mayor Ivan Allenβs suggestion to retire at age 60 and head up the Atlanta Arts Alliance (which later became the Woodruff Arts Center). Yates already had served as president of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra (1962-65) and helped recruit Robert Shaw to be its conductor. βWhen you look at who had a heavy infl uence on the thinking of people like the late Ivan Allen, of Robert W. Woodruff, Charlie was an effective leader in getting those people to see how Atlantaβs strategy should include the develop-ment of world class arts and organizations,β said Beauchamp Carr, executive vice president of the Woodruff Arts Center. Originally drawn to the arts when his wife Dorothy recruited him for nights at the symphony, Yates ushered the city into a new age. Besides overseeing the effort to build the High, he helped raise the $5.4 million for the centerβs endowment. In his 10 years as president (1973-83) of what became the Woodruff Arts Center, the overall budget rocketed from $3.8 million to $16.3 million. βI donβt think of it as reaching into their pockets,β he once said of his fund-raising ethic. βI think of it as their doing something for their own benefi t.β The smile didnβt hurt much either.This story was written by Thomas M. Stinson and published in the Oct. 18, 2005 edition of the Atlanta Journal-Constitition. Additional information from an Associated Press story was added to this account.
Watts Gunn β’ Macon, Ga.Watts Gunn was born in Macon, Ga., on January 11, 1905. He made golf
history in 1925 in the U.S. Amateur at Oakmont Country Club, setting the world record for international championship golf by winning 15 straight holes in the fi rst round of the 36-hole match. In that tournament, he went to the fi nals against friend and rival Bobby Jones, marking the only time two players from the same city ever met for the U.S. Amateur crown. Gunnβs fi rst major tournament win was in the 1923 Georgia Amateur. In 1927, he won the Southern and National Intercollegiate tournaments, and the following year he won the Southern Amateur and Southern Open Champi-onships. In 1926 and 1928, he played on the Walker Cup teams with Jones, defeating the British team both years. He played many benefi t tournaments, including several exhibitions with Jones in 1927 and 1928. He took the Georgia State Amateur title in 1927 and 1928. At Lanier High School, he captained golf teams that never lost a match. Watts Gunn was inducted into the Georgia Golf Hall of Fame on January 14, 1989.
From a Time Magazine account dated July 11, 1927 Last week, Watts Gunn of Georgia Tech, playmate of Robert Tyre Jones Jr., went four times around the Garden City (L. I.) Golf Club course in a total of 302 strokes. Had he been alive to do this in 1902, he would have won the U. S. Open Championship by fi ve strokes.* But, at 22, his reward was the qualifying medal of the national intercollegiate golf tournament. Consistently but not brilliantly, Golfer Gunn battered his way to the fi nals where he found the other favorite, Roland Mackenzie of Brown University, his good friend, with nerves set for a 36-hole struggle. Beginning at the fi fth hole of their fi rst round, Golfer Gunn went stark, staring golf-mad, made six birdies, used only nine putts on seven consecu-tive holesβputts varying between 35 and 12 feetβsunk with a borrowed putter. His score for the fi rst 18 holes was 69, breaking the course record by two strokes. After that it was only a matter of time before Mr. Gunn won match and championship, 10 up, 9 to go. Another fi gure in the tournament was John D. Ames, blond son of Knowlton L. (βSnakeβ) Ames (sinuous Princeton quarterback of the strenuous β90s), who lost to Watts Gunn in the second round but was elected president of the Intercollegiate Golf Association.

GEORGIA TECH ALL-AMERICANS
The Golf Coaches Association of America selects a 60-man All-America team each year following the NCAA Division I Championship. The first, second and third teams each honor 10 golfers, with the remainder named honorable mention. Golfers not initially named to the 60-man team but who finish in the top 15 of the NCAA Championship are automatically added to the honorable mention unit. The GCAA has been selecting All-America teams since 1958.
Bryce Molder (1998-2001) and David Duval (1990-93), pictured above, are two of only four Division I players ever to be named first-team All-American four times. The others are Gary Hallberg of Wake Forest (1975-78) and Phil Mickelson of Arizona State (1989-92). Nicholas Thompson and Roberto Castro earned All-America recognition each of their four years at Tech, though not first-team honors each time.

Troy MattesonNCAA Champion in 2002 Troy Matteson capped an outstanding junior season by winning the biggest tournament of the year, the NCAA Championships in Columbus, Ohio. The victory was his fourth of the year, tying the school record held by David Duval and marked the fi rst time since 1934 that a Yellow Jacket was crowned National Collegiate Champion. Mattesonβs run to the title began inauspiciously as he opened with a 2-over-par score of 73 to stand tied for 88th place, seven shots off the tournament lead. That would change quickly, as he found his scor-ing groove over the next 54 holes of play. Day two saw the fi rst signifi cant move, as Matteson carded a 5-under-par round of 66 to move into a tie for 12th place at 73-66β139. The steady play continued over the fi nal two rounds, as Matteson fi nished with sub-par rounds of 70 and 67 respectively to take over the individual lead as the fi nal round came to an end. The victory marked the fourth individual title of the year for Matteson, tying the school record previ-ously held by David Duval, along with being the third time in school history that a Yellow Jacket had been the individual national champion. For his efforts, Matteson was named the recipient of the Arnold Palmer National Player of the Year award and earned fi rst-team All-America honors for the fi rst time in his career.
Watts GunnNational Collegiate Champion in 1927 The Rambling Wreck and the name of Watts Gunn rose to supreme heights in 1927. Becoming the fi rst Georgia Tech golfer to win the National Collegiate Championship, Gunn shot a total of 302 over the 72-hole event at the Garden City Country Club to win the medal competition. He went on to dispatch Walker Cup teammate Roland McKenzie, 10-9, to win the individual title, and his 69 in the fi nal round broke the course record. He also helped Tech win the Southern Intercollegiate title the same year. Along with winning the collegiate championship, Gunn was a two-time U.S. Walker Cup team member, joining the squad in both 1926 and 1928. In those two events, he compiled a combined 4-0 record, posting a pair of victories in each. Gunn was inducted into the Georgia Tech Hall of Fame in 1961. The annual Yellow Jacket menβs golf team award for the seasonβs most improved player is named in Gunnβs honor.
Charlie YatesNational Collegiate Champion in 1934 Yates, who won the British Amateur in 1938 and the Western Amateur in 1935, won the Georgia state championship in 1931 and 1935, advanced to the second round of match play in the U.S. Amateur and was the low amateur in the fi rst Masters tournament in 1934. He culminated a fi ne college career by winning the 1934 National Collegiate Championship in Cleveland, Ohio, joining Watts Gunn as the only two Tech golfers ever to do so. Yates is one of eight Yellow Jackets to have competed in the Walker Cup, as he was a team member in both 1936 and β38, compiling a 3-0-1 record in those matches. In 1953, he was named the captain of the Walker Cup team and was an honorary captain in 1985 Yates played in the fi rst 11 Masters tournaments, fi ve times fi nishing as low amateur and three times fi nishing in the top 24. He was inducted into the Georgia Tech Hall of Fame in 1959 and an award named in his honor has been given annually to the member of the Yellow Jacket golf team displaying the most outstanding academic achievement.

NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP SUMMARIES
NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP TIMELINE
The national collegiate championships were conducted by the United States Golf Association through 1938, and consisted of a medal competi-tion and a match play bracket similar to todayβs U.S. Amateur. The NCAA began conducting the champion-ship in 1939, using a match play format through 1965, when it became a 72-hole, stroke-play event. The NCAA instituted a 54-hole cut from 1979-88. A 36-hole cut was used in 1989, and again from 1992-2001. No cuts were made in 1990, 1991 or 2002. Regional qualifying tournaments were instituted in 1989, expanding the championship fi eld to 81 teams, 27 in each of three regionals, with 30 teams advancing to the 72-hole fi nals. In 2009, the format was changed to include a total of six regional tournaments (13 teams in three, 14 teams in the other three). Thirty teams (fi ve from each regional) advanced to the fi nals. The fi nals structure also changed in 2009, with 30 teams playing 54 holes of stroke play. The individual national champion is crowned after 54 holes, and the top eight teams advance to a match play bracket to decide the team champion.

Very little time was had by the men to practice, but they went to it with a will and when the time for the fi rst match with Columbia came around, a formidable quar-tet was on hand. Perry Adair, one of the foremost golfers in the South, was number one man. Adair has been playing golf around Atlanta since twelve years old and holds many of the course records in the South. Fred Howden of Savannah, was elected manager. Howden had a score of notable records to his credit there. Ewing Watkins, one of the best golfers in Tennessee and said to be the longest driver in the South, and Tom Prescott of Atlanta golf fame, comprised the other two members of the team.β
Scoring for matches that year, and in years beyond, βwas kept on the Nassau system, the winners on the fi rst nine being awarded one point, the same being true for the second nine holes, and an additional point being awarded for the best ball of the match.β
