We had great weather this academic year which resulted in our students gaining valuable experience in competition golf. Congratulations to all students and a big "THANK YOU" to all our partner golf courses including our home course - Wilderness Ridge.
The Student Club keeps track of “Mandatory Service Requirement” (MSR) hours of each student and at the end of the year they have a drawing to reward the different levels of service. MSR points can be earned by volunteering for club, university or community events such as the Special Olympics golf clinic or the UNL Big Event that provides a day of service-oriented activities for Lincoln neighbors and organizations. This year’s top level winners and their rewards were: Jake Kuhlman, Amazon Echo; Austin Miller, Samsung tablet; Brad Bailey, Bushnell Tour V3 Rangefinder.
