SCORING INFORMATION
Each of the eight participating teams consists of six golfers, with the top-four scorers in each round counting toward the team score. The final team score will be determined by totaling all completed rounds. Individual scoring consists of the lowest aggregate score of all completed rounds.

CARRYING MOMENTUM
Colgate has four top-five finishes this year, including runner-up in the Bucknell Invitational at the very same golf course in mid-October. The Raiders claimed second place of 18 teams competing in the three-day tournament, edging all three Patriot League foes – Bucknell, Holy Cross, and Lafayette. Hill shot an even-par 210 to pace the team with a seventh-place finish. 

This spring, Colgate has two top-five finishes – most recently March 29 when the Raiders took the lead into the final day of the Battle at Rum Pointe before taking second place overall. Colgate once again rode the success of its first-years, with Freedman and Hill tying for second.

CHAMPIONSHIP SUCCESS
Colgate is coming off back-to-back second-place finishes in the last two Patriot League championships. The Raiders, searching for their first conference crown, will turn to their veteran leadership in Herzig and Fedele, who have both garnered All-Patriot League honors during their careers. Herzig is a two-time selection, most recently last year after placing tied for fifth on the individual leaderboard. 

INDIVIDUAL HONORS
The competitor with the lowest three-round score will be the Patriot League Men's Golf Championship individual medalist. The top five finishers are named All-Patriot League First Team, with the following five finishers earning a spot on the second team. Patriot League men's golf head coaches will vote for the three major awards - player, rookie and coach of the year - at the conclusion of the championship. 
 
TEAM CHAMPION EARNS AUTOMATIC BID TO THE NCAA REGIONALS
The Patriot League Champion will receive the League's automatic bid to the NCAA DI Men's Golf Regionals. The individual medalist will also receive a bid to the regionals if they are not on the championship team. The NCAA Regionals will be held from May 12-14 at six sites around the country, including Auburn, Ala., Tallahassee, Fla., Urbana, Ill., Reno, Nev., Amherst, Va. and Bremerton, Wash. The NCAA Championship is scheduled for May 23-28 in Carlsbad, Calif. The 2025 NCAA DI Men's Golf Selection Show will be on GOLF Channel on Wednesday, April 30 at 1 p.m. ET.
