2009-10 MEN’S GOLF MEDIA GUIDE
K-STATE MEN’S GOLF
SEASON OUTLOOK
Senior-Driven Wildcats Expect Successful Spring Season When head coach Tim Norris arrived at Kansas State in 1997, he inherited a program that had inished last in the Big Eight Confer ence for 14 straight years. After the 2008 09 season, it is safe to say that the Kansas State golf program is in good hands. The Wildcats inished the season with a school record tying four tournament victories and 10 top ive in ishes. When you look at what the Wildcats did last season, it is hard to imagine they could dupli cate that kind of success. However, the Wild cats are off to a good start with a very successful fall season. K State started the fall with a rough start at the Wolf Run Intercollegiate, but they quickly rebounded when the Wildcats were able to win their second tournament of the season at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate. “We had a whole lot of depth from top to bottom and even had some individuals inish in the top 15,” said head coach Tim Norris. “The familiarity with the course because this course has the reputation of being the Octa gon of Doom in a golf course because if you’re not careful it can deliver some pain mentally. I know the guys really point to this tourna ment because they want to protect their home turf. Next year’s team will be a young one but hopefully we can make it three in a row.” The success didn’t stop there as the Wild cats were able to place in the top ive in the next four tournaments. “I thought the fall season was very good,” continued Norris. “To inish the fall season with our three seniors ranked in the top 225 is pretty good. That shows that if we had a little more support with the fourth and ifth scores we can really do something this spring. I wasn’t displeased at all with anything in the fall, but it shows that you have to play great not just good to win. The irst tournament we had two players in the top ive and had our worst inish of the fall because we didn’t get the fourth and ifth scores that we needed. To get to the next level this spring we are going to need that depth but I think the guys are very capable. I think it is nice to know that we have three or four guys that are going to put in a good score and if we can get one more guy to chip in a good score we have a very strong chance of competing for a trophy.” The Wildcats entered the season a very ex perienced team with Mitchell Gregson, Joe Ida, and Joe Kinney returning for their senior sea sons to lead the team to another record break ing season. Gregson, Ida and Kinney have combined for
seven top ive inishes, 10 top 10 inishes, 15 top 20 inishes and one tournament victory. This group of seniors has combined for 13 of the top 30 18 hole scores in school history and 12 of the schools lowest 54 hole individ ual scores. The Wildcats had a record setting fall for the second consecutive year. The victory at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate marked the irst time in school history that the Wildcats won the same tournament in back to back years. The 2008 09 Wildcats shattered the school’s annual stroke average when they in ished the season at 289.38, ive strokes lower than the school record. But the 2009 10 team is currently sitting two strokes better than the record with a 287.29 average.

Mitchell Gregson Before the season even began, Gregson was named one of the Top 50 Players to Watch list by GolfWorld and didn’t disappoint. Gregson hasn’t inished lower than 11th place in any tournament this fall and has three top ive in ishes. Gregson is currently leading the team with a 70.59 stroke average and is on pace to break nearly ever career record for the Wild cats. “Mitch is really going to have a chance to showcase his talent this spring,” said Norris. “He has been pretty diligent in his work early in the spring. He is excited and wants to go out on a good note because this is his last season. You only get so many tournaments in college golf and I know that he wants to make the
K-STATE MEN’S GOLF most out of them. “I know he has aspirations to play at the professional level. There are not glaring weak nesses in his game and he has a lot of oppor tunities in front of him. He is very solid on the east coast, west coast and in the north and south which will make him the anchor.”
Joe Ida
Joe Kinney The senior from Antioch, Ill., Kinney has taken a leadership role for the Wildcats. After competing in only four events during the 2008 09 season, Kinney was in the scoring lineup for every tournament this fall. He recorded the best inish of his career at the Wolf Pack Classic where he tied for second place after carding an 8 under par 208 to help the Wildcats tie for fourth place. As the oldest member of the team, Kinney has been working hard in his time at Kansas State. The hard work is paying off as Kinney is enjoying the best season of his career and is third on the team with a 72.00 stroke average.
Chase Chamberlin A freshman from Lawrence, Kan., Chamber lin redshirted the 2008 09 season to give him a year to develop his game. Chamberlin had a very successful high school career where he was a four year letterwinner at Olathe South High School, a regional champion and was named the 2008 Olathe Golfer of the Year as a senior. “Chase played some good rounds and I know he got a lot more comfortable at Colbert Hills which hasn’t quite translated to the scores that he is capable of shooting at some of the away tournaments. But that hasn’t di minish what I think about Chase’s game and where he can take it from here. “He has been at the indoor facility a lot dur ing the offseason. He shot a 71 in the last round of the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate and played some good rounds in qualifying to give him a better understanding of what it takes. I am very excited for Chase once he gets more comfortable and Colbert Hills and gains con i dence at the away events,” commented Norris.
Ross Geubelle A junior form Lakin, Kan., Geubelle com peted in three events during the fall season. Geubelle worked steadily on his game all fall and is going to be a very big part of the spring season for the Wildcats. Geubelle started the season off at the Wolf Run Intercollegiate with a three round score of 232 and helped the Cats to a ninth place inish. “Ross has worked the hardest of any of the guys this offseason, which shows that he is pretty self motivated and wants to get himself back on track,” said Norris. “This past fall was kind of a bump in the road that started last spring when he tweaked his back. The injury made him fall into some habits with his swing. This is such a tough game and trying to play when you’re hurt is really hard. Ross has so much pride and wants do whatever he can to help the team. This fall was just a carry over of last spring with the injury. As with any ad versity you going to get through it and come out of it a better player. Because of this Ross knows his swing better and I think he is look ing forward to helping the depth of the team this spring. Looking forward, next year he is going to be a guy we are going to lean on very heavily to replace the seniors.”
Ben Juffer Juffer is a freshman from West Des Moines, Iowa, who played in two events during the fall. He carded his season’s best score at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate where he tallied a 15 over par 157 en route to a tie for 33rd place. Juffer has the ability to play a lot in the spring and has already quali ied for the Wildcats’ irst tournament in the spring at the Fresno

Ida won the irst tournament of his career at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate with a 2 under par 140. Ida is second on the team with a 71.94 stroke average and inished the fall with two top ive inishes. He also owns six of the schools lowest 54 hole tournament scores. “Joe is just so close to having a big break through to move up to be on of the top 50 players in the country. This game is about con idence and once he gets that going he can re ally pull us along,” said Norris.
“It has been really gratifying to see him makes the strides that he has made this sea son. When you talk about seniors wanting to make a lasting impression and go out on a good note, I think that has really been the fuel this year for Joe. He has been in the program for so long and this ifth year has really been a big difference. Joe has played a lot of summer golf and is a very seasoned veteran and all the experience can really go along way especially here in the spring. He is going to be a guy that we lean on pretty heavily as we go through this season,” said Norris.
2009-10 MEN’S GOLF MEDIA GUIDE
SEASON OUTLOOK
K-STATE MEN’S GOLF State Classic. “We had some good weather when we re turned from the tournament of the fall season so we had our qualifying for the opening spring tournament in Fresno and he played really well,” said Norris. “He is a guy that got more comfortable as the season went on. Ob viously there is a transition from high school golf to college golf and being away from home that freshman have to deal with. I think he got his con idence up going through that qualify ing round and playing so well. I’m hopeful that winter wasn’t to harsh on him. He has been in the practice facility and the ball is lying pretty long and straight. I wouldn’t qualify him as a power hitter but, pound for pound, he hits the ball a long way. He has a good strong light so the wind is not going to bother him. It is good to see him make this transition and see all these golf courses this spring for the irst. Everybody was a freshman at one time and they got better. Ben is a player that cannot only get us to a higher level this year a guy that we will be dependent on for years to come.”
Jason Schulte Schulte, a junior, has been a very consistent contributor. After playing in the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate as an individual, 10 of his inal 12 rounds were “counters” for the team score. Schulte's K State career round came at the last fall event in Stockton, Calif., as he carded bogey free 67. Schulte is shaping up to be a very solid contributor for the spring portion of the season. “Jason really came on at the end of the fall and found his comfort level,” said Norris. “I see a lot of the courses that we play really favoring his game this spring. He has had some experi ence playing on the University of Texas Golf Course and some of the other courses on the spring schedule. I don’t see Jason ever over powering a golf course but, he does a really good job of managing his game. I think he is going to have some good opportunities to play well in the spring.”
Kyle Smell Smell, with two years of eligibility remain ing, has chosen to redshirt the 2009 10 sea son. Smell will be counted on heavily next season with the departures of Ida, Gregson and Kinney. “He made a good decision to redshirt and has worked very hard,” said Norris. “Kyle has been in the indoor facility at least 45 minutes a day everyday. I think he feels a lot more com fortable with his golf swing. You get to a point where you keep doing the same thing over and over again you can only achieve to a cer tain level and basically your mechanics can only take you to a certain level. Kyle felt like
he was at that point three or four weeks into the fall season. He has also grown about two inches since he got to K State and a golf swing is a very fragile thing so a late growth spurt can hurt that. The length of his clubs changed and that is not easy to do. I think he made a good decision to redshirt and think he has used it as a positive to help him get to the next level. Here he is practicing and playing and he doesn’t have the pressure of trying to perform and try to shot a score. One of the most dif i cult things in golf is trying to make a mechan ical change then try and then go out into tournament competition. “Kyle has had some experience in the top ive and has been on the roster for some win ning tournaments. He will be in a good spot once he gets to the summer. This is not a year off for Kyle, he is working hard and he will be a more mechanically sound golfer when the next season gets here.”
Curtis Yonke Yonke, a freshman Overland Park, Kan., be came the irst freshman since Kyle Smell in 2007 to compete in ive or more events in his irst semester as a Wildcat. Yonke recorded one top 10 inish at the Jim Colbert Intercolle giate as he placed tied for eighth place and helped the Wildcats to their only tournament title of the fall. “I talked to Curtis at the end of the fall and I think he really learned a lot playing on these courses with the hole locations set up so close to the edges of the greens,” said Norris. “He re ally learned to play thinking one shot ahead and leaving himself in a good spot even if he did miss the green. “He has been a regular in the indoor facility in the offseason working on a couple things in his swing to help him be a little more consis tent. I know that Curtis is really excited to get out there because of the long layoff, but, once we get cranked up in the spring, there won’t be much let off time. I’m excited for Curtis and I know he is looking forward to helping our team climb higher up in the rankings this spring. “It is great for Curtis and the rest of the guys to be able to practice with this group of seniors each day because the better the practices are the better they will play in tourna ments. Curtis is see ing how these seniors de velop and how they go about practicing. Curtis has been using this to improve his
2009-10 MEN’S GOLF MEDIA GUIDE

play and hopefully hext year he can show the incoming class how to do it.”
Spring Outlook With a solid fall season under their belt, the senior driven Wildcats have another record breaking spring season ahead of them. “I think the guys are very excited because they know, competition wise. we will have to step up, which is a good thing. We want to play against the very best because that is going to help us down the road if we are fortunate enough to get to the regional. We are starting the preparation now and hopefully we can get on the course at least a couple of times before we head to Fresno. “I think, con idence wise, our guys are in a pretty good spot with what they have been able to do inside and I think they will be fresh, rested and ready to go. I think this team has a great opportunity in front of them playing in a different more demanding schedule than last year. I think we can be in a good spot at the end of the year if everyone stays in the present tense and plays to their ability,” said Norris.

ZIONSVILLE, Ind. Kansas State carded a 15 over par 299 in the final round at the Wolf Run Intercollegiate to finish in ninth place in its first tournament of the season at the par 71, 7,195 yard Wolf Run Golf Club. "The course was very tough," said head coach Tim Norris. "Mitch Gregson and Joe Kinney played great tournaments for us, but if we had a little bit more support we would have been pretty decent this week." Kansas State shot a 54 hole score of 33 over par 885, three shots behind Penn State for seventh place. Illinois won the event with a 5 under par 847. North Florida followed in second place, posting an 8 over par 860. Host school Indiana came in third, while Michigan and Iowa State rounded out the top five. Gregson posted an even par 71 in the final round, giving him a three round total of 2 under par 211, finishing tied with fellow Wildcat Kinney for fifth place. "Joe is very capable," said Norris. "He is going to be able to step right in and help us have a fabulous year once we get everyone going at the same time. Joe has worked extremely hard all summer and has done the things he needed to do to get better. It is very encouraging to see a player work as hard as he did and get these types of results."
MANHATTAN, Kan. - Kansas State finished strong in the final round as it took home the tournament title at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate after firing a 1-over par 569 at the par 71, 7,363-yard Colbert Hills Golf Course. The victory at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate marked the first time in school history the Wildcats won the same event two years in a row. "We had some low scores," said head coach Tim Norris. "If you are playing that type of golf out here, I can only see it translate into success down the road. The course was set up pretty difficult today and all the pressure was on us. I hope this can be a shot in the arm to the guys because we were able to use this tournament last year to go on and have a really great fall season." The Wildcats finished 22 strokes ahead of in-state foe Kansas, which finished in second place with a 23-over par 591 in off-and-on rainy conditions. After beginning the final round in second place, Illinois State finished with a 28-over par 596 for a third-place finish. Coming off a tough tournament to start the 2009-10 season at the Wolf Run Intercollegiate, senior Joe Ida rebounded to bring home the first individual title of his career by carding a 2-under 140. "I practiced all week on trying to get back to basics after the last tournament and it paid off," said Ida. "I hit the ball a lot better this week, there's no doubt about it." Finishing in second place was K-State senior Mitchell Gregson, who carded a 1-under par 141.
RENO, Nev. - Senior Joe Kinney led 15thranked Kansas State to a strong finish as he recorded a career-best finish at the Wolf Pack Classic. Kinney, who finished in a tie for second place, propelled the Wildcats to its lowest score of the tournament with a 7-under par 271 final-round score, giving K-State a total score of 9-under par 855 to tie for fourth place with Fresno State. Kinney had a career performance, posting an 8-under par 208. He propelled himself into the top five with back-to-back scores of 67 in the second and final rounds. "Joe just played great." said head coach Tim Norris. "I am so proud of him. He is off to a great start and I have a lot of optimism the rest of the year for him. We can go east coast, west coast, north or south and he is going to play well. His game is very solid and he is very vital to our team right now." In-state rival Wichita State won the team title after firing a 17-under par 847 at the par 72, 7,100-yard Wolf Run Golf Club. San Diego finished in second place after carding the lowest round of the tournament with a final-round score of 13-under par 275 to finish at 15-under par 849. Host school Nevada finished ahead of the Wildcats in third place with an 11-under par 853. Wichita State's Dustin Garza took home the individual title with an 11-under par 205. Mitchell Gregson fired a 2-under par 214 and finished in a tie for 11th place. Curtis Yonke finished in a tie for 21st after carding a 2-over par 218.
AKRON, Ohio - After shooting back-toback scores of 8-over par 296, Kansas State stayed steady in the final round as it carded a 9-over par 297 to finish fourth at the Firestone Invitational. The Wildcats, who began the day tied for tied for fifth, were able to move up one spot as they shot the third-best round at the par 72, 7,125-yard Firestone Country Club. "We had a pretty good day today," said head coach Tim Norris. "We had a 9-over par, which, due to the weather, was a lot better than the 8over par yesterday. It was pretty breezy today with a 15-20 mile-per-hour wind from the first hole to the 18th green. Our guys threw away the opportunity to win the tournament yesterday, but didn't let it affect them today and they put in a great round." St. Mary's came from behind to win the event with a final score of 5-under par 869. Eastern Michigan, which led the event heading into the final round, fell into second place after posting a 6-over par 870. Big Ten power Michigan State finished in third at 24-over par 888.

Senior Mitchell Gregson finished in 15th place after carding a 5-over par 221.

Oct. 26-27, 2009 New Mexico State Golf Course Las Cruces, N.M. Par 71 / 7,074 Yards Host- New Mexico State
Nov. 2-4, 2009 Brookside Country Club Stockton, Calif. Par 71 / 6,757 Yards Host-Pacific
LAS CRUCES, N.M. - Kansas State finished third at the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate after carding a 54-hole score of 9-under par 843 at the par 71, 7,074-yard New Mexico State Golf Course. K-State and Washington State each shot a 1-over par 285 as the Wildcats could not gain any ground on the second-place Cougars in the final round. "It was a good day," said head coach Tim Norris. "The course played a little more difficult, but there was still a couple of low rounds out there. The weather was beautiful again. Third place is nothing to be ashamed of, but to win, we needed to overachieve a little bit. I don't think we had anybody overachieve this week, but we had some really solid play by the top four guys. To have three-round totals of 215 or better is a strong team performance. " Senior Joe Ida led K-State's charge as he finished tied for seventh at 6-under par 207. Right behind Ida was senior Mitchell Gregson, who took 11th after shooting a 5-under par 208. Joe Kinney carded his second round of 71 in the tournament and finished tied for 30th at 1-over par 214. Jason Schulte finished tied for 34th at 2-over par 215, while Curtis Yonke finished at 9-over par 222 to tie for 65th.
STOCKTON, Calif. - Kansas State recorded its fifth top-five finish of the fall with a 9under par 843 at the Pacific Invitational. The Wildcats carded a final round score of 4-under par 280 to climb up three spots from eighth to fifth at the par 71, 6,757-yard Brookside Country Club. "I thought the guys really played well," said head coach Tim Norris. "When you look back and see we were only 11 shots from winning, that's not a bad tournament. The guys played with some patience today because they needed to. It was nice to see Joe Ida make about a 50-foot bunker shot for birdie and Mitch (Gregson) made a 20-footer down hill for birdie to finish off the fall. We had a nice score from Curtis (Yonke) at even par. I thought the guys did a really good job today." The Wildcats were led by Gregson, who posted a 5-under par 66 in the final round, giving him a three-round total of 8under par 205 to earn fourth place. The 66 ties Gregson's season best single round score and the fourth place finish was his third top-five finish of the fall. Ida tied for 13th place after firing a 3-under par 210. Jason Schulte carded a 4-over par 217 to finish tied for 33rd. Yonke finished the tournament in 41st place after shooting a 7over par 220.

When head coach Tim Norris arrived in Manhattan on Aug. 1, 1997, he inherited a program that hadn’t finished in the top half of its conference since placing fourth in the former Big Eight Conference in 1969. Making the assignment even tougher was the fact that the

Wildcats finished last in the Big Eight for 14 straight years from 1978-91. K-State was so far off that map that the thought of postseason NCAA play was nearly inconceivable. But that all changed once Norris took the helm. Now in his 13th season at Kansas State, Norris has turned a once dormant Division I golf program into a legitimate Big 12 player and an annual NCAA Regional contender. In 75433 seasons of men’s golf at K-State, the Wildcats have qualified for the NCAA regionals five times. Four of the five appearances have come in consecutive years, with Norris guiding the Wildcats to the NCAA Central Regionals from 2003-2006. In 2003, the Wildcats came within one-stroke of qualifying for the NCAA Championships. In 2004, had regionals only been 36 holes, the Wildcats would have advanced, but a final round score of 318 dropped them to a 15th-place finish. In 2005, K-State shot a solid 881, but were unable to advance to the NCAA Championships, finishing six shots shy of qualifying. And in 2006, the Wildcats finished 18th, four spots better than their 22nd seed. Even though the Wildcats have yet to advance a team past regionals, Norris has guided individuals to the NCAA Championships in two out of the last four years. AJ Elgert tied for 12th at the 2003 Central Regional to extend his collegiate career to the national championship where he finished tied for 28th following a 72hole score of 8-over 288. In 2005, Robert Streb became the fourth Wildcat, but the first freshman ever, to advance to the NCAA Championship after tying for 12th at regionals. Under the tutelage of Norris, KState improved its placing in the Big 12 Championships in each of his first seven years at the helm. Norris’ resurrection of the golf program at K-State all began when he inherited his first squad in 1997. During that season, K-State finished last in the Big 12. The steady rise through the Big 12 was topped off in 2004, when the Wildcats captured a fourth-place finish in the Big 12. It was the school’s best conference finish since placing fourth in 1969. In 2009 Norris led his team to another fourth place finish at the Big 12 Championship.

During 2008-09 season Norris coached to the team to the most successful season in school history when the Wildcats captured four tournament titles at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate, Pacific Invitational, Shocker Classic and the Missouri Tiger Intercollegiate. The 2007-08 season was a further testament to the job Norris has done with the Kansas State golf team. Norris helped the Wildcats turn an 80-over, wind-crazed nightmare of a tournament at the Club Glove Intercollegiate into a prime learning experience and launch pad for success. After the Club Glove, K-State turned in its best two events of the fall and shot a school record 826 while leading the top-ranked team in the nation at the Pacific Invitational. During the spring season, Norris’ Wildcats won their first tournament since the 2003-04 season when they brought home the first place trophy from the Ron Moore Invitational. The 2006-07 season served as a rebuilding year for the K-State golf team. The Wildcats lost two seniors from the previous season, including the school’s all-time leader in career stroke average Ben Kern and had a roster littered with freshmen. Two of those freshman, Mitchell Gregson and Joe Ida proved to be more ready than one might think and competed in all 13 events. Robert Streb and Kyle Yonke, a sophomore and junior respectively, stepped up in leadership of the young squad and tied for the team lead in stroke average at 75.24. Due in a large part to Norris’ recruiting and player development, K-State also had many individual accomplishments in 2005. Ben Kern became the first golfer since Matt Van Cleave in 2003 to win a tournament outright as Kern took medalist honors at the ASU Thunderbird Invitational. Kern finished the tournament with an amazing school- and tournament-record score of 69-65-65—199 (-14). For the year, Kern averaged 72.74 strokes-per-round, the second best annual stroke average in school history. During the 2003-04 season the Wildcats won the Purina Classic in St. Charles, Mo. It was KState’s first tournament victory since winning the Wildcat Invitational on April 14, 2002. Even more impressive was the fact that it was K-State’s first victory outside the state of Kansas since winning the Southwest Classic in Austin, Texas, on March 14, 1995. At the Purina Classic, Van Cleave became the first Wildcat to win a tournament since Aaron Watkins was victorious on Oct. 1,
K-STATE MEN’S GOLF
2002 at the Jim Colbert Intercollegiate. En route to his victory, Van Cleave etched his name in the K-State record book with a 54-hole score of 7067-65—202 (-11), only to be outdone by Kern the following season. Norris’ work might begin on the golf course, but it doesn’t end there. Norris places a heavy emphasis on academics, which is why he produces true student-athletes. Last season, Joe Ida, Mitchell Gregson, Jason Schulte and Daniel Wood earned Academic All-Big 12 honors. It marked the 10th-consecutive year that Norris has placed at least two of his golfers on the Academic All-Big 12 team. In 2006-07 season Yonke was also the seventh Wildcat golfer to be named a Cleveland Golf All-America Scholar by the Golf Coaches Association of America. In 2006, Yonke and Jonathan James snagged first team Academic All-Big 12 honors. In 2005, Van Cleave earned first team honors, while Nick Shumacher picked up second-team honors. In 2004, three Wildcats were selected to the Academic All-Big 12 squad – Tim Moody (first team), Greg Douglas (second team), and Van Cleave (first team). Not only did Van Cleave win back-to-back first team Academic All-Big 12 accolades, but he was also honored by the GCAA as a Cleveland Golf All-America Scholar Recipient in 2004. Through his first 11 years at K-State, Norris has seen 32 academic distinctions given to his golfers. Norris came to K-State from UTEP, where he led the Miners to six NCAA West Regional appearances (1990, ‘91, ‘93, ‘95, ‘96, ‘97), while coaching two-time All-American and 1995 Western Athletic Conference Player of the Year Ryan Hietala during his seven-year stint as head
coach. His 1990, ‘91 and ‘95 squads appeared in the NCAA Championship and he had individuals take part at nationals in 1994 and 1997. Prior to becoming the head golf coach at UTEP, Norris played on the PGA Tour, where he brought home four tournament titles in his nine-year career. Norris holds the distinction of going through qualifying school three times and qualifying each time. His first victory came at the 1980 California State Open. Norris’ second victory on the tour came at the 1982 Greater Hartford Open held at Wethersfield Country Club. Norris won the Greater Hartford Open in a convincing fashion, as he defeated Ray Floyd and Hubert Green by six strokes. Norris fired a tournament record 72-hole score of 63-64-66-66—259 (-25), a record which still stands. Norris’ tournament record at the Greater Hartford Open is the fifthlongest standing tournament scoring record on the PGA Tour. Norris’ third tournament title came at the Spalding Invitational Pro-Am in Pebble Beach, Calif., in 1986. Norris carded an unthinkable second round score of 64 at the Pebble Beach Golf Links, which is tied for the third lowest score in the course’s storied history. The round of 64 at Pebble puts him in a group with only a few others that have accomplished the same feat. Other PGA Tour greats that have shot a 64 at Pebble include Paul Azinger, Ray Floyd, Jeff Sluman, Payne Stewart and Tiger Woods. Norris’ final victory came in 1992 at the Sun Country PGA Championship at Santa Teresa, N.M. Norris won the tournament while he was the head coach at UTEP. Overall, Norris had a very successful
11
professional career, recording nine other top 10 finishes during his nine years on the Tour. His professional career ended prematurely due to an injury to his right hand. Collegiately, Norris starred at Fresno State, where he was a two-time All-American. Norris’ 1980 stroke average of 71.89 stood atop the Bulldog’s all-time single-season scoring charts for 20 years. The 1980 season was a very successful year for Norris as he garnered first team All-American honors. He went on to earn Fresno State Athlete of the Year accolades. During the 1978-79 season, Norris was tabbed a second team All-American after transferring to FSU from Fresno City College. A native of Fresno, Calif., Norris and his wife, Shelley, reside in Manhattan with their daughter, Ashley and son, Tyler.

The fourth place finish ties the 2003-04 team for the best Big 12 Championship finish in school history. “We really had a good day today,” said head coach Tim Norris. “Hopefully our guys can take away some confidence from this. We have a few things that we still need to iron out, but we had a great team score today. The guys knew the opportunity was there and they knew that if they got after it that good things would happen. I am very proud of all of them.” Top-ranked Oklahoma State won its third consecutive Big 12 title with a 29-over par 1,149. The Cowboys have won seven of the 13 Big 12 golf titles in the conferences short history. Colorado finished in second place after firing a 43over par 1,163. Finishing three strokes ahead of Kansas State for third place was Texas A&M with a 47-over par 1,167. Robert Streb finished in third place among individuals after carding an even under par 280. The third place finish is the best finish by a Wildcat golfer at the Big 12 Championship in school history as Streb used three scores of under par to set a new school mark. K-State’s Daniel Wood fired his best score of the tournament in the final when he carded a 2-under par 68. His four round score of 18-over par 298 placed him in a tie for 21st place.

SEASON REVIEW
DALY CITY, Calif. - Kansas State finished in a tie for 12th place at NCAA West Regional as the Wildcats fired a final round score 2under par 286 at the 6,842-yard Lake Merced Golf Club. "It was just a fantastic season," said head coach Tim Norris. "This whole season was one to remember for all the guys and myself included. I think that we have definitely raised the bar. This wasn't our best three days, but it should not overshadow anything the guys did this year. I'm so optimistic about next year. We have a chance to be even better than this year because we have so much to build off of with Mitch (Gregson), Joe (Ida) and Kyle (Smell) all coming back." Arizona State claimed the title after shooting a 36-under par 828. Oregon, Texas A&M, San Diego and Southern California rounded out the top five as each advanced to the 2009 NCAA Championship, May 27-30 in Toledo, Ohio. Sophomore Jesper Kennegard took home the individual title after carding a threeround score of 12-under par 204. Bronson Burgoon of Texas A&M finished second with an 11-under par par 205. The Wildcats, who carded a three-round score of 8-over par 872, were led by senior Robert Streb who carded a 4-under par 68 in the final round to give him a three-day score of 3-under par 213. Streb finished the final tournament of his career in 19th place. Junior Mitchell Gregson, who fired a 2under par 70 in the final round, finished tied for 31st place. Ida, Smell, and Wood all finished in a tie for 66th as each carded an 8-over par 224.

COLBERT HILLS GOLF COURSE The reputation of Colbert Hills as that really big course out in Kansas is attracting players from across the country that want to test their skills against one of the nation's toughest courses. The dream of Colbert Hills goes back to 1994 when Senior PGA Tour great Jim Colbert, an alumnus of Kansas State, got involved with a project to help the school build a university-run course, a place where the Kansas State golf team could train and where the school could train golf course superintendents and managers and do research on turfgrass. The university's vision and that of Jim Colbert was that the project would also be a public daily fee course and one where disadvantaged children could learn the game of golf. Colbert found the perfect site, 300 acres in the Flint Hills area on the northwest edge of Manhattan. An alumnus who was grazing cattle on this site donated the property, and Colbert donated a half million dollars. Soon other donors signed on. Jim Colbert combined with well-known Dallas architect Jeffrey Brauer to lay out the $11 million course. “God built about 14 of the holes, and we built about four of them,” Colbert said. “I hope you can't tell the difference.”
Colbert Hills opened officially in May 2000 with a bevy of golfing celebrities on hand, including Lee Trevino, Raymond Floyd and Annika Sorenstam, who played in a Founders Pro-Am. “What an unbelievable effort to attract the commitment and bring all these people together,” said PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem at the dedication. “What they got (at Kansas State) is a big sprawling layout that rides comfortably on the Flint Hills outside Manhattan,” John Garrity, Sports Illustrated columnist, said. “From the seventh tee, you can see for miles in all directions and what you see is mostly sky and prairie, with a few ranches thrown in for rustic charm.” What Kansas State had built is a huge links-style course that plays at 7,525 yards from the back tees, nicknamed the Black and Blue tees. It lies on a superb site of rolling hills with changes in elevation that most Americans had no idea could exist in the prairies of Kansas. Colbert Hills includes a new clubhouse, state of the art driving range and enough acreage for a nine-hole teaching course, as well as a host of research and academic opportunities for K-State researchers and

students. Colbert Hills has become the first PGA Tour collegiate licensed facility. With a world-class golf course, the university will restructure the turf program, making it one of the best in the world. Today, KState offers a specialized degree in turf management and has separated itself from all other turf programs in the nation by expanding its curriculum to include all aspects of the profession, including business administration and hospitality. Graduates are now effectively prepared in the overall management of golf facilities. "GCSAA is pleased to join Jim Colbert, the PGA Tour and Kansas State University in this endeavor that will benefit all who enjoy the game of golf," said GCSAA Chief Executive Officer Stephen F. Mona. "The positive impact of this project will be far reaching - a golf management program to train tomorrow's leaders, a research facility to aid the golf industry and a first-class facility for golf enthusiasts to enjoy a game that is growing faster than any sport in America."

Colbert Hills broke ground on a $5 million clubhouse in July of 2008 in hopes to bring the missing piece to the state’s No. 1 public golf course. The clubhouse houses four locker rooms, a pro shop, a multipurpose area, a conference room and a bar and grill within its estimated 13,500 square feet. The project was funded entirely with private donations. The clubhouse will provide for local events such as weddings, fundraisers and more.

KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY
K-STATE MEN’S GOLF
It's a great time to be a K-Stater! In 2009, K-State welcomed a new president and a new athletic director, who will build on the successes of the past and create a bright new future. Kirk Schulz accepted the K-State presidency because he is impressed with all of the outstanding programs and successes of our faculty, staff and students and with the passion K-Staters have for their university. K-Staters connect with our new resident via his blog, Twitter and Facebook. Check out his Web site at www.k-state.edu/president. HISTORY AND LOCATION Founded on Feb. 16, 1863, Kansas State University is the oldest public institution of higher education in Kansas and one of the nation's first landgrant universities. Throughout its history, K-State's mission has been rooted in the principles set forth in the Morrill Act - to provide teaching, research and service to the citizens of Kansas, the nation and the world. The university's 644-acre wooded main campus with historical limestone buildings is located in Manhattan. K-State also has a campus in Salina, and another coming soon in Olathe, along with numerous extension fields, offices and other facilities in Kansas and Nebraska. The Salina campus offers bachelor's and associate degrees in aviation and engineering technologies. Air service in and out of Manhattan Regional Airport connects the city with major airports all over the Midwest and South. Located five miles north of campus is Tuttle Creek Reservoir, a favorite outlet of students for boating, water skiing, swimming and fishing.
2009-10 MEN’S GOLF MEDIA GUIDE
ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE K-State is the only research university in the United States to have three national CASE/Carnegie professors of the year. All three are active teachers: Michael Wesch, 2008 national winner; Chris Sorensen, 2007 national winner; and Dean Zollman, 1996 national winner. Look for "kstate" on YouTube to see lectures by them and other great faculty. More than 250 majors and programs are offered in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Business Administration, Agriculture, Education, Architecture, Planning and Design, Human Ecology, Technology and Aviation and Veterinary Medicine. The Graduate School offers 67 master's degrees, 39 doctoral degrees, five educational doctorate programs and 33 graduate certificates in multiple disciplines across campus. More than $185 million is available in student financial assistance, including $11 million in scholarships. Seven out of 10 students receive financial assistance. Even with 23,000 students, K-State is committed to individualized education whenever possible. For example, freshman English classes have no more than 22 students, introductory chemistry labs average 15 students, introductory art classes average 19 students and speech classes are limited to 23 students. Seventy percent of classes have 30 students or less and the average class size for all undergraduate classes is 23 students. Ninety percent of classes have less than 49 students.

STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT
ACADEMIC RECOGNITION K-State is one of just 63 public universities - that's the top 4-percent - identified by the Carnegie Foundation as having "very high research activity." K-State is a leader on the cutting edge of research discoveries. The university has received almost $250 million in research grants. And faculty scientists and graduate students aren't the only ones conducting research.

K-STATE MEN’S GOLF JOHN CURRIE Athletics Director Wake Forest ‘93
KANSAS STATE ATHLETICS DIRECTOR
Tennessee’s athletic facilities as a whole bene itted from Currie’s efforts as the development of ice secured individual-naming recognition gifts that included $4 million for a new aquatic center, $2 million for a new softball stadium, $1.5 million for a new soccer stadium and $2 million for baseball renovations. Tennessee’s track complex also was renovated, while ground was broken last summer for a new Greg Norman-designed intercollegiate golf practice complex and clubhouse. Currie oversaw the development and execution of a comprehensive marketing plan in 2005 that led to attendance at SEC home basketball games improving 54 percent from the previous year, while student attendance increased by 197 percent. John Currie, who was introduced as Kansas State’s 15th Director of Athletics on May 18, has emphasized the importance of accessibility and accountability early in his tenure as K-State sets its sights on achieving the vision of having a model intercollegiate athletics program. A highlight of Currie’s early initiatives was the implementation of the “K-State Pledge” in July which includes a series of inancial accountability measures and core values that will serve as the foundation of K-State’s vision. Among those values are ive goals: a world-class student-athlete experience; value to the University, city and state; integrity and transparency in relation to ethics, inance and NCAA compliance; championship-level athletic performances; and the best fan experience in the Big 12. In an effort to create the best fan experience possible, Currie’s staff created new ticket initiatives for football that led to the largest home-opening crowd in Bill Snyder Family Stadium history on September 5, 2009 (50,750). In his irst 60 days on the job, Currie also worked to establish relationships across campus, through steps such as personally visiting with K-State deans in their respective of ices. He also serves as a member of President Kirk Schulz’s cabinet and has made presentations and held question and answer sessions with many other campus organizations. Currie also immediately implemented a communications plan in an effort to regain the trust of all Wildcat fans, which included in-person stops throughout the state, regular online letters and chats and K-State’s irst-ever FanForum conference call, which saw more than 3,000 fans participate.
Currie joined the Tennessee staff in 1997 as Executive Director of the Volunteer Athletic Scholarship Fund (VASF). Following a two-year stint as Assistant Athletics Director at Wake Forest, Currie returned to Knoxville in 2000 as Assistant Athletics Director for Development and served as director for the "STEP UP" campaign. As UT’s irst-ever capital campaign, it exceeded its goal and reached a total of $48.6 million, $4 million over the intended goal, with gifts from 870 donors. In 2002, Currie was promoted to Associate Athletics Director for Development.
He served as President of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) development of icers group for 2004-05, chaired the 2007 CASE national athletic development conference and was a member of the SEC ticket policy committee. The Knoxville News Sentinel recognized Currie in December 2008 by naming him to its prestigious “Top 40 Leaders Under 40” list. He began his professional career at Wake Forest in 1993 as a Deacon Club intern before being named Assistant Deacon Club Director in 1994, a position he held until 1997. Highlights of Currie’s stints at Wake Forest include developing student and young alumni programs, creating a new endowment and planned giving program, managing the coaches circle volunteer program and assisting in the leadership of the “Touchdown 2000” football ield house and Miller Center basketball practice/academic counseling facility campaigns.
Currie earned his master’s in sports management from Tennessee in 2003 and is a 1993 Wake Forest graduate. He and his wife Mary Lawrence, have three children, Jack, Virginia and Mary-Dell.
Understanding the importance of coaching continuity in building successful programs, Currie moved quickly to sign 2009 Big 12 Baseball Coach of the Year Brad Hill and women’s basketball head coach Deb Patterson to contract extensions and also led the effort to complete the ive-year contract for legendary returning football coach Bill Snyder. Currie began his duties as Athletics Director on June 8 after 10 years at the University of Tennessee, most recently serving as Executive Associate Athletics Director for Athletic Director Mike Hamilton. Currie was responsible for the direct management of units that annually produced $84 million in revenue and gifts, including the department’s fundraising, marketing, ticketing, media relations, public relations, internet and broadcasting of ices. Currie also provided oversight for the men’s basketball program and other department initiatives and helped direct numerous searches that led to the hiring of successful head coaches. An integral member of the facility planning team for UT’s $200 million master plan renovations for Neyland Stadium, Currie also directed a $36 million arena renovation and basketball practice facility construction project that was completed in the fall of 2007. He developed and implemented the revenue models to fund both projects without outside funding from the state or local government, tax dollars or University-derived support. Currie’s accomplishments at Tennessee included helping the University secure a $50 million commitment in 2006 for academic and athletic needs, a gift which represented the largest from an individual in Tennessee history. Units under his direction also negotiated an $84 million multi-media rights contract with thenHost Communications, and a $19.3 million all-sport contract with Adidas. Under his leadership, giving to Tennessee athletics more than doubled from $19.5 million in 2003 to $41.6 million in 2008. Currie led the negotiation and implementation of new student season ticket sales for football in 2008, resulting in $900,000 of new department revenue in its irst year. He also implemented new regular-season football sales strategies that helped Tennessee set a new single-game attendance record of 109,061 in 2004.

2009-10 MEN’S GOLF MEDIA GUIDE
K-STATE MEN’S GOLF SCHOOL SONGS The Alma Mater was selected as a result of a 1903 campus contest. H.W. Jones (’88) was responsible for K-State’s prized result. Jones’ original work was four stanzas including the chorus. His version has been slightly altered over the years to include just two stanzas and the changing of the words from Kansas State Agricultural College to Kansas State University.
ALMA MATER “I know a spot that I love full well, ’Tis not in forest nor yet in dell, ever it holds me with magic spell, I think of thee Alma Mater. “KSU, we’ll carry the banner high, KSU long, long may thy colors fly. Loyal to thee thy children shall swell the cry. “Hail, Hail, Hail Alma Mater.”
KANSAS STATE TRADITIONS
WILDCAT VICTORY “Fight you K-State Wildcats. For Alma Mater fight-fight-fight. “Glory in the combat for the purple and white. Faithful to our colors, we shall ever be, fighting ever fighting for a Wildcat Victory!”
WABASH CANNONBALL
WILDCAT NICKNAME Through its first 19 seasons of athletic competition, Kansas State had used “Aggies” as its nickname. But prior to the 1915 season, new coach John “Chief” Bender gave his squad the nickname “Wildcats.” The moniker lasted the one season Bender coached at K-State. Under Coach Z.G. Clevenger in 1917, the school team became known as the “Farmers.” In 1920 new coach, Charles Bachman, took over the program, renaming the team “Wildcats.” This time, the nickname stuck.
WILLIE WILDCAT Willie, a student bedecked in a oversized Wildcat head, is Kansas State’s No. 1 fan. Willie Wildcats are selected yearly by a panel appointed by the cheerleading coach. The mascot is a central part of athletic contests, but also attends functions around the state as an ambassador. Traditionally, the identity of the student portraying Willie is kept secret.
TOUCHDOWN I-XI In 1922, Hall-of-Famer Charles Bachman asked alumni to consider donating an actual Wildcat to the school to serve as a mascot. KSAC alumni Herbert R. Groome and John E. McCoy, both veterinarians in Twin Falls, Idaho, donated “Touchdown I” to the school shortly after the animal was nursed back to health under their care. (The bobcat had an encounter with a porcupine, and his face and throat were punctured by numerous quills. Unfortunately, Touchdown I never fully recovered from its fight, dying of pneumonia shortly after arriving in Manhattan.) Although the bobcats have served as K-State’s wildcat mascot since 1922, the animals no longer attend K-State games. Touchdown XI, the 11th in the line, was kept at Manhattan’s Sunset Zoo.
Everyone knows that familiar tune Wabash Cannonball. In fact, Wabash and KState are almost synonymous. What many people do not know is how the song became an integral part of Wildcat athletics. In the fall of 1969 the department of music burnt down. Every piece of music in the building was destroyed. The only thing that was salvaged was what was in the band director’s brief case. That included a piece of music titled the Wabash Cannonball. With an upcoming football game and no music, that left only one thing to do. The band members played the song loud and often. A song that originally had no connection to KSU became a second fight song.
SLOGANS Several chants and slogans are used in association with the team. “Purple Pride” and “Eat ‘Em Up, Eat ‘Em Up K-S-U” are just a few. One slogan that has virtually died out is “Every Man A Wildcat.” The term was popular in the ’50s, ’60s and early ’70s, and once adorned the front of the Ahearn Field House press box. Since the term referred to only one gender, however, it has faded. Kansas State, itself, is referred to in many different shortened versions. The most popular is “K-State”, which is used by alums, friends and journalists from coast to coast.
K-STATE COLORS The school color Royal Purple was adopted in the fall of 1896 by a committee of “Miss Minnie L. Copeland, Jr. and Miss Winnifred Houghton and Miss Ina E. Holyrod, of the senior class, and perhaps one or more others.” Although K-State’s only official color is purple, white has been used as a complimentary color for many years. Silver is also a common second or third color. Former basketball coach Cotton Fitzsimmons incorporated gold during his two-year stint (196870), but gold or yellow has not been used since that time. The term “Purple Pride,” which is often used in association with KSU athletics, was given rise during the tenure of head football coach Vince Gibson (1967-74).
POWERCAT LOGO One of the most recognizable athletic logos in the nation is the K-State Powercat. The logo was introduced by Bill Snyder shortly after his arrival in Manhattan as the attitude of the entire athletics department and university was changing. Manhattan native Tom Bookwalter, in cooperation with head coach Bill Snyder, created the powerful logo that is a prominent feature on the football helmet, at Wagner Field, on the back of the Dev Nelson Pressbox, clothing, flags, bottled water, vanity plates for cars and just about anywhere in Manhattan. Previous logos used by the athletics department included a line drawing of a wildcat head and the cartoonish “Willie the Wildcat” that is used only by the Alumni Association.

What Every Alumnus and Booster of Kansas State University Should Know About the NCAA
As a supporter of K-State, you have a lot of pride in your school. You are proud of KSU’s high academic standards, our adherence to values and the overall quality of the K-State experience. Kansas State has a long tradition of integrity but to help assure compliance with NCAA and conference rules, please take a few minutes to read this information. The eligibility of Kansas State’s student-athletes and reputation of the department and university depend greatly upon your cooperation. Key Point A “representative” of Kansas State’s athletic interests is: an individual who is known (or who should have been known) by a member of K-State’s executive or athletics administration to: A) have participated in or to be a member of an agency or organization promoting KSU athletics. B) have made financial contributions to the athletic dept. or to an athletic booster organization of K-State. C) have been involved otherwise in promoting the institution’s athletic program. D) bought or received tickets to a K-State athletics event. Key Rule: NCAA BYLAW 13.01.5 In Division I, representatives of athletics interest are prohibited from making in-person, on-or-off campus recruiting contacts, written, telephonic communications or e-mail transactions with a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardians. Interpretations 1. A representative of a Division I institution is prohibited from making in-person recruiting contact with a prospect and his or her parents/guardian on or off campus.

Limited Exception: You may have contact with a prospect regarding permissible preenrollment activities such as summer employment, provided the prospect has already signed a National Letter of Intent and K-State is aware that you are making these contacts in regard to employment. 2. A Division I representative is prohibited from writing or telephoning a prospect and his or her parents or legal guardians. Limited Exception: You may have a phone conversation with a prospect only if the prospect initiates the call. Such a call may not be prearranged by a K-State staff member and you are not permitted to have a recruiting conversation, but may exhibit normal civility. You must refer any questions about the University’s athletic program to the athletic department. 3. A representative is prohibited from contacting a prospect’s coach, principal, or counselor in an attempt to evaluate the prospect. Limited Exception: NCAA rules do not preclude you from viewing a prospect’s contest on your own initiative, but you may not contact the prospect, pick up game films or transcripts. What can I do? If you know of a high school or junior college student-athlete who might want to attend Kansas State, the only permissible activity for a representative is to call the appropriate KState coach. What is an “Extra Benefit?” An extra benefit would include provision of any transportation, meals, clothes, entertainment, preferential loan terms, wages not commensurate with duties, or other benefits offered to a prospect or current student-athlete which is unavailable to the general student population.
What can you do with prospects? DO feel free to attend high school and junior college athletic events. You simply cannot have any contact with the prospective studentathletes or relatives. Should you find yourself seated next to parents of a prospect, DO NOT initiate conversation with the relatives. If conversation is initiated with you, respond in a civil manner, but DO NOT discuss K-State’s athletic program with them. If they raise questions about athletics, remind them that the NCAA prohibits you from discussing athletics with them. Direct their questions to the athletic department. You MAY discuss the University in general, and its academic programs. DO continue established family relationships with friends and neighbors. Contacts with sons and daughters of those families are permitted as long as they are not made for recruiting purposes and are not prompted by Wildcat coaching staff members. You ARE permitted to play “pick up” games, continue neighborhood picnics or backyard barbecues and engage in your normal activities with prospects and their parents who are family friends. DO feel free to attend a public event (i.e. awards dinner) at which prospects are in attendance. NO attempt should be made to contact or recruit the prospect at these events.
HEAD COACHES AND COMPLIANCE
TIM NORRIS
DO feel free to invite a team for dinner or to meet with a group of alumni in a city where they are competing. The NCAA permits student-athletes AS A TEAM to receive special benefits not permitted as individuals. Arrangements for such events must be made in advance with the head coach or appropriate athletic staff member. Other questions and answers: Q. May I accompany the coach during a “home” visit with the prospect? A. No Q. May a booster group finance a seasonending banquet? May it purchase any awards for the team? A. Yes, provided all funds are expended through the athletic department. Since the NCAA has established a value limit on awards received by student-athletes, it is important to have all awards approved by the athletic department.
Additional Reminders 1. Please contact the athletic department for NCAA rules interpretations. 2. Remember that in most cases: CONTACT is prohibited. 3. If you think it is wrong then it probably is wrong. 4. No question is too dumb to ask. 5. Questions: Call 785-532-6910
What can I do for current K-State athletes? DO feel free to invite a student-athlete to your home for an occasional meal, but you must first contact the coach in the sport in which the student-athlete is a participant. Remember, the student-athlete must provide his or her own transportation. You may do this a max of once per school term per athlete.

Wildcat Legend Jim Colbert After an illustrious football career as a prep in Kansas City, Jim Colbert came to K-State on a football scholarship. However Colbert quickly turned his attention to the links instead of the gridiron and the rest, as they say, is history. Colbert finished his college career at K-State in 1964 as the runner-up at the NCAA Championships and has had continued success as a professional. After turning pro in 1965, Colbert joined the PGA Tour in 1966. HIs first tournament victory came at the 1969 Monsanto Open. During his 14-year span on the tour, Colbert picked up eight tournament titles. Following his retirement from professional golf in 1987, Colbert took his nearly $1.5 million winnings, to run his own golf course management company, Jim Colbert Golf. He also worked for as a color analyst for golf events on ESPN. With the creation of the Senior PGA Tour in 1991, Colbert got back into professional golf, with great success. Colbert ranks seventh all-time in career earnings as a member of the now-called Champions Tour. The former Wildcat won the Arnold Palmer Award in consecutive years after notching four tournament victories in 1995 and five more in 1996. He was also named Senior Tour Player of the Year by the Golf Writers Association in 1995 and 1996. Twenty victories later, the former K-Stater has earned in excess of $8 million in his senior career alone. Not only is Colbert known for his success on the links, but his strength and desire to return from a life threatening illness. On June 23, 1997, Jim Colbert underwent surgery for prostate cancer. After missing four months of the season, Colbert returned with a vengeance, placing in the top-5 five times, including a second place finish at the du Maurier Championship that sent Colbert over the $7 million mark for his senior career. With his late-season success, he earned a nomination for the Comeback Player-of-the-Year award. Colbert returned to the winner’s circle in October of 1998, firing a final round 5-under par 67 to outlast Senior Tour rookie David Lundstrom by one stroke and win the Transamerica. “It’s by far the most meaningful golf tournament I ever won,” Colbert said following the victory. With the thrilling victory, the former Wildcat surpassed the $8.1 million mark for career earnings on the Senior Tour and, at the time, became the Tour’s alltime leading money winner, passing Lee Trevino. Colbert’s most recent victory on the Champions Tour came at the 2001 SBC Senior Classic after carding a 12-under par 204 to hold off Jose Maria Canizares by one stroke. At the conclusion of the 2002 season, Colbert finished among the top 31

money-winners for an 11th straight year. Colbert’s best finish in 2003 was at Bruno’s Memorial Classic, where he tied for third after losing in a five-hole playoff to Bob Charles. His best round was a second round 8-under-par 62 at the Senior British Open. The 62 equaled the competitive course record at Turnberry and made him the youngest player ever to match his age in a Champions Tour major. In 2004, Colbert battled injuries throughout the year, but still managed to make the cut in 22 of 23 tournaments. His best finish was a tie for 18th at the SBC Classic. In 2005, Colbert competed in 24 events, capturing four top-20 finishes. His best tournament of the year came at the Constellation Energy Classic, as he tied for 12th following a 54-hole score of 8-under par 208, taking home $33,575.00 worth of prize money. On the year, Colbert racked in $199,481 in prize money. Colbert has remained active in the Manhattan community and is involved in fundrasiers for the university and its golf programs. In 1974 Colbert helped start a celebrity golf tournament along with former K-State golf coach Ron Fogler, the primary fundraiser for both the K-State men’s and women’s golf teams. In addition to helping K-State, Colbert has also established the Golfer’s Against Alzheimer’s Association in honor of his mother Marie, who lost her life to the disease. Colbert was elected to the Kansas State University Hall of Fame, being inducted in September of 1991. He was also inducted into the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame on June 13, 1998 in Abilene. The Hall as since moved to Wichita. Colbert returned to Manhattan for the Colbert Hills ground breaking ceremony, along with Senior Tour players Walter Morgan, Bob Murphy, Lee Trevino, Hubert Green, and LPGA star Annika Sorenstam, held on May 1, 2000. The $11 million project is home to a 300-acre, 18-hole championship style course that serves as the home for the men’s and women’s golf programs. Assistance and research from Kansas State University, the PGA Tour and the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America are helping to make this stateof-the-art facility the best of its kind in the world. Since the course opened, it has played host to at least one men’s or women’s collegiate golf tournament each year. In May of 2003, the course hosted its most prestigious event of all-time, when it played host to 27 men’s collegiate golf teams at the NCAA Central Regional from May 15-17.
