CARLSBAD, Calif. — The No. 24 Texas Tech men's golf team finished 10th at the 2025 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championships, its fourth Top 10 finish in the Greg Sands era and sixth in program history. Having advanced to the final round of stroke play on Monday, the Red Raiders shot 2-over-par 290, falling three strokes short of the eighth-place team as part of the Top 8 teams who will move on to Tuesday's Match Play quarterfinals.

Among the 15 teams who qualified for Monday's fourth round, the Red Raiders shot the eighth-lowest score (+2) and were unable to make the leap as it did on the leaderboard after Sunday's round to advance to see another day. Texas Tech's valiant round three effort, the lowest score shot in round three (-2), moved it from 19th and into a tie for eighth after 54 holes.

Texas Tech finished 14-over-par (1166) after 72 holes via rounds of 4-over-par (292), 10-over-par (298), 2-under-par (286) and 2-over-par (290). Over the past four days, the Red Raiders rode the roller coaster from the end of round one in 12th to dropping to 19th after 36 holes and launching up to eighth after Sunday's round.

Senior Calum Scott's career came to a close on Monday. The Red Raider who never missed an NCAA Championship event, finished with this third consecutive 1-under-par 71 in the fourth round. Scott finished tied for 27th overall, climbing his way up from a first-round 5-over-par 77 that placed him tied for 120th - a first-round score with one blemish on the 15th hole where he found the water twice. Scott fired five of 17 birdies in the tournament in the fourth round; he finished tied for the seventh-most birdies carded in the tournament.

Scott finished 17th in the 2025 PGA Tour University rankings, which earns all players ranked 11th-25th a 2025 membership to PGA TOUR Americas and automatically qualifies him for the second stage of 2025 Q-School.

Tim Wiedemeyer, Ben Gregg and Connor Graham accounted for the Red Raiders' three additional countable scores in the final round. Wiedemeyer posted a tournament-best even-par 72 while Gregg matched his best tournament score from round two with a 1-over-par 73. Graham carded a 2-over-par 74. Graham owned second best finish among the Red Raiders with a tie for 50th while Gregg finished tied for 60th.

Wiedemeyer had a similar NCAA Championship as Scott, having one round as a setback, that ultimately registered the sophomore a 66th place finish.

Charlie DeLong owned the low score for the Red Raiders in the event, a 3-under-par 69, spearheading Texas Tech's round three charge. He posted a fourth-round 4-over-par 76 to cap the NCAA Championships, finishing tied for 55th.
