After winning the Yellowjacket Spring Invite last week, MSUB’s men’s golf team earns GNAC Team of the Week honors. PORTLAND, Ore. – When Caleb Stetzner turned in his scorecard last Monday at Lake Hills Golf Club, he had a look of bewilderment on his face. The true freshman on the Montana State University Billings men’s golf team had just posted a 1-over-par 73 on the par72, 6,802-yard course layout, yet he was informed by his Yellowjacket teammates that his score would not be factored into the team’s total on the day. Stetzner’s 73 wasn’t so much of a shortcoming as it was a pleasant surprise for MSUB head coach Kevin Woodin, who tallied four individual scores below par to put together a stellar team round of 281. “That second round was definitely the key for us coming out on top in that event,” said Woodin. “They all started very well, and fed off one another. They were in consecutive groups, and I think that’s where there’s team unity in golf. There is such a thing as momentum in team golf, and we got it there for a while. For four players to shoot under par was pretty exciting.”
