The 15th-ranked Colorado State University Pueblo men's golf team made a significant leap on Friday during the second round of the NCAA Division II Super Regional. Shooting a one-under-par 287, the ThunderWolves climbed into a tie for 12th place and are now five-over par for the tournament, remaining in contention for the top five spots that qualify for the national championships. Senior captain Archie Wyatt led the team with a three-under-par 69, placing him tied for eighth overall. They trail fifth-place teams Cal State East Bay and Cameron University by six shots as they head into the final round on Saturday. The ThunderWolves hope to leverage their earlier success on the same course to secure their spot at the national championships.

By the Numbers
  • ThunderWolves shot a team score of one-under-par 287.
  • Archie Wyatt is tied for eighth place at four-under par through 36 holes.
State of Play
  • ThunderWolves are tied for 12th place at five-over par overall.
  • Cal State East Bay and Cameron University are tied for fifth at one-under par, six shots ahead of CSU Pueblo.
What's Next

As the ThunderWolves head into the final round, they need a strong performance to overcome the six-shot deficit and qualify for the NCAA Division II National Championships for the first time since 2022. Aiming for at least a low round similar to their past victory on the same course could be crucial.

Bottom Line

CSU Pueblo must capitalize on their momentum and deliver an exceptional performance in the final round to secure a place in the national championships, leveraging their experience from previous successes on the course.
