Division I college golf teams reload with 2016 signing classes
11/13/2015 | by Andy Kountz of AmateurGolf.com
High school seniors make their decisions on their next step in their golfing careers
AmateurGolf.com has compiled a list from several sources that shows many of the top golf programs in the country and their signees for the coming 2016- 2017 season. Some of them made their plans long ago. Others, like Joshua Sedeno, didn't know their destiny until the last nerve-wracking minute. (Sedeno was originally planning on attending SMU, and made other plans after the golf program there received sanctions due to recruiting violations.)
Congratulations to all the players listed below, and to anyone else ready to pursue their dreams of playing college golf. Many of the players listed are AmateurGolf.com members.
