April 30, 2025 | Men's Golf
STARKVILLE – Mississippi State has punched its ticket to the NCAA Tournament as the No. 5 seed in the Reno Regional. This is State's seventh-consecutive NCAA regional berth, which extends a program record.
Â
"I'm very proud of this team and their dedication to our program and our goals," head coach Dusty Smith said. "Making the NCAA Tournament is not something we take for granted. It is something that is earned through sacrifice and consistency. We are excited for this next opportunity and know what is required of us to be at our best. We look forward to our regional preparation over the next ten days."
Â
The Bulldogs will travel to Montreux Golf & Country Club in Reno, Nevada, to play on May 12-14. The top five seeds will advance to the National Championship tournament in Carlsbad, California.
Â
MSU is joined in Reno by four teams ranked in the SCOREBOARD Top 25. The full field include seeds No. 1 Texas, No. 2 Virginia, No. 3 Alabama, No. 4 Duke, No. 6 BYU, No. 7 San Diego, No. 8 Santa Clara, No. 9 California, No. 10 Grand Canyon, No. 11 Sam Houston, No. 12 East Tennessee State, No. 13 Central Arkansas and No. 14 Fairfield.Â
Â
State will look for its second NCAA Championship appearance in the last three seasons, having won the 2023 Morgan Hill Regional. This is the Bulldogs' seventh NCAA Regional appearance under Smith, the most of any coach in program history.Â
