\n\tWKU’s lineup will be Colton Woosley<\/a>, Will Easterlin<\/a>, Trevor Drew<\/a>, Rafe Blankenship<\/a> and Gage Doyle<\/a>. \u00a0\u00a0
\n\tThrough three tournaments into the 2026-27 season, WKU hasn’t placed below third.
\n\tMost recently, WKU finished in third at the Badger Invitational. Colton Woosley<\/a> was the top finisher for the Hilltoppers with a 8-under score for third place. \u00a0
\n\tThe Hilltoppers had a 6-under score in the GMAC Invitational, finishing behind host UAB. Rafe Blankenship<\/a> was the top finisher for WKU with a 4-under score putting him in a tie for fourth.
\n\tTo open the 2026-27 season, the Hilltoppers played in the ANF Fall Classic. WKU claimed second place in the tournament with a 13-under score as a team. Gage Doyle<\/a> tied for second place with an 8-under score for the tournament. WKU had four place in the top 10 with Trevor Drew<\/a>, Will Easterlin<\/a> and Rafe Blankenship<\/a> tying for seventh place.
\n\tThe Hilltoppers return the entire 2025-26 team and bring in two newcomers to the mix \u2013 Barton Rutledge<\/a> and Connor Woosley.
\n\tLast season, WKU had seven top 10 finishes out of 11 tournaments played. This included two third place finishes at the Furman Intercollegiate and the Austin Peay Intercollegiate and a sixth-place finish at the Conference USA Championship, the best finish for the Hilltoppers since joining the league.
\n\tOn the individual side, it was a well-balanced effort with five different golfers leading the team at some point throughout the season. Gage Doyle<\/a> led the team in four tournaments and Rafe Blankenship<\/a> led the Hilltoppers in three.\u00a0 \u00a0
