During the season, the golf team’s progress will be covered each week on “The Crimson Tide This Week,” a 30-minute regional sports show.

INTERVIEWS Head coach Jay Seawell and his team are available for interviews and can be reached through the Alabama Athletics Communications Office, due to the extensive time the golf coaching staff spends outside on the course. Team practice sessions rotate times and locations daily, depending on upcoming events and areas of practice emphasis. Golf interview requests should be made at least 24 hours in advance. All golf interviews must be arranged through Aaron Jordan in the Athletics Communications office at 205-348-5401.

FACILITIES As part of the Crimson Tradition Fund facility upgrades, Alabama’s home golf course — Ol’ Colony — has some recent renovations that serve to turn the course into the Tide’s real home with new green complexes and added length. The Alabama golf program is housed in the Jerry Pate Golf Center (2004), the Tide’s private practice facility and clubhouse that includes coaches’ offices, a fully furnished locker room and a team room. The Pate Center also provides Alabama golfers a myriad of chipping and putting greens, target greens and a full driving range. Ol’ Colony, a course designed by former UA men’s golf standout Jerry Pate, serves as the team’s home course. In addition to its “home” course, the Alabama men’s golf team benefits from the opportunity of being able to access several golf courses in the Tuscaloosa area for practice, including NorthRiver Yacht Club and Indian Hills Country Club.

2013-14 OUTLOOK

MEN’S GOLF PREVIEW By Christopher Walsh

Trey Mullinax, Cory Whitsett and Bobby Wyatt. They were the backbone of the University of Alabama men’s golf program that won three straight Southeastern Conference championships and back-to-back national titles, with an additional second-place finish in both. They all stayed for their senior year and concluded their collegiate careers just as they had hoped, on top. Now those remaining have to figure out how to deal with being the two-time reigning national champions without their three biggest leaders or trying to put too much pressure on themselves. “That will be the hardest thing, to deflect that off our own players,” said Jay Seawell, last season’s recipient of the Dave Williams National Coach of the Year award by the Golf Coaches Association of America. “We accepted the bullseye last year, we understood it. We had to learn from it because basically the same team was back except for Justin (Thomas). This year is completely different.” For example, there isn’t a single senior on this year’s roster. Tom Lovelady, a redshirt junior, is the closest and figures to step into Mullinax’s leadership shoes, err, cleats, while everyone else is either a sophomore or freshman.

ALABAMA MEN’S GOLF

But that doesn’t mean the Crimson Tide can’t make another championship run, in fact Alabama, along with Oklahoma State, shared the No. 1 ranking in the Golf Coaches Association of America’s preseason poll, ahead of the likes of Georgia Tech, Texas and Georgia, among others. Leading the sophomores is Robby Shelton, an All-American who was also named the Phil Mickelson National Freshman of the Year and SEC Golfer of the Year in the spring. Both he and Gavin Moynihan of Ireland are considered two of the best junior players in the world. However, Seawell isn’t sure how things will play out with the No. 4 and 5 spots. A lot of his lineup decisions during the fall schedule might have to do with where the Crimson Tide is playing. “I’m okay with a little fluidity early, in fact I want it because I think it makes other people hungry,” he said. “We have a lot of guys who will battle for it. We’ll see who comes through the wars of qualifying.” That competition could potentially last well into the spring and right up to the SEC Championships at the Sea Island Golf Club’s Seaside Course in St. Simons Island, Ga. Building up to that


OUTLOOK will be events at some of the nation’s biggest name courses including Olympia Fields, Shoal Creek, Southern Highlands and Sawgrass Country Club.

Alabama will also host the annual Jerry Pate National Intercollegiate at the Old Overton Club in Vestavia Hills on Oct. 6-7

2013-14 OUTLOOK

“It’s going to be hard and difficult, just because that’s the way I like it,” Seawell said about the schedule. “But I think we’re going to have some venues that we’re going to play a lot of different lineups and I think that’s key. “It’s going to be very important how the chemistry and the confidence grows between now and the SECs.” Yet the goal remains the same, to make another run in the NCAA Championships, which this season will be at the Concession Country Club in Bradenton, Fla., from May 28-June 3. “That’s the exciting part, how the younger guys will now accept those new roles that they’ve been taught,” said Seawell. “We have a system in place, all the way from recruiting until now, that we talk about. That people who come in early really have no responsibility other than to get their feet in the ground and be the best that they can be, but to learn. “There’s a day that they’ll be put into the light of responsible leadership.”

JAY SEAWELL Head Coach

13th Season

SOUTH CAROLINA, 1988 Jay Seawell not only rekindled the proud tradition of the Alabama Crimson Tide men’s golf program, he has entrenched the Crimson Tide into the forefront of the nation’s elite teams, securing back-to-back national championships in 2013 and 2014.

The 13th year head coach is now charged with sustaining one of the country’s top programs after the loss of seniors Cory Whitsett, Bobby Wyatt and Cory Whitsett. The golf team’s success under Seawell has energized the Tide’s alumni base and created an excitement for Alabama golf not seen in recent memory. Named the University of Alabama’s head men’s golf coach on July 26, 2002, Seawell’s teams have captured four Southeastern Conference championships, including three straight. He has led UA to 11 NCAA Tournament appearances and eight

His golfers at Alabama have been nominated for the sport’s highest national awards, including the Ben Hogan Award, the Jack Nicklaus Award, the Fred Haskins Award, the Phil Mickelson Award and the Byron Nelson Award. Thomas won the Nicklaus, Haskins and Mickelson awards in 2012 and Shelton was named the Mickelson Award winner in 2014. Seawell has coached Alabama to 42 team

tournament championships with 29 individual medalists in 12 years in Tuscaloosa. The Crimson Tide won back-to-back titles in 2014 with a commanding 4-1 victory over No. 2 Oklahoma State in the NCAA Finals at the Prairie Dunes Golf Club in Hutchinson, Kan.

UA also set a school record for winning percentage with a 1506-2 record for a winning percentage of 95.6. Seawell was named the Dave Williams National Coach of the Year and the SEC Coach of the Year in 2014. It was Seawell’s third SEC Coach of the Year Award in as many years and fourth overall. The Crimson Tide finished tied for second in the stroke-play portion of the NCAA Championships before fighting its way through three rounds of match play with victories over SMU (3-2), LSU (4-1) and Oklahoma State (4-1) in the finals.

Shelton was also the SEC Player and Freshman of the Year while Whitsett was the league’s Scholar-Athletes of the Year. The Tide also had a record four first team All-SEC selections.

Seawell’s success caught the attention and respect of his coaching peers, who voted him the 2008 SEC Coach of the Year. His 2008 Tide team co-led the nation in team tournament championships with six wins and also produced four medalists in 2007-08.

Howell replaces Mike McGraw, who was named the head coach at Baylor after one year and one NCAA Championship in Tuscaloosa. Howell is the fourth assistant coach in as many years for the Crimson Tide with each assistant landing a head coaching job. McGraw had replaced Roby Bradley, who was named the head coach at Purdue following the Crimson Tide’s 2013 NCAA Championship victory. Bradley had replaced Scott Limbaugh, who took over the Vanderbilt program in the summer of 2012, after Alabama’s NCAA runner-up finish. Howell is married to the former Kay Nobles and the couple has a daughter Sadie.

“This is just a phenomenal opportunity,” Howell said. “To coach at the collegiate level is something I have always wanted to do, but I just needed to find the right situation, and there is no better situation than at the University of Alabama. Golf instruction has been my background but Coach Seawell had an opening and it was just a perfect fit, not only professionally, but for my family as well. Moving forward I am excited to get the players on campus and begin building relationships with this team. Jay has done an unbelievable job with this program and I excited to be a part of it, and I’m ready to hit the ground running.” A member of the PGA of America, Howell attended Mississippi State’s professional golf management program, graduating in 2010.

24 ALABAMA MEN’S GOLF


ACADEMIC SUCCESS

EXCELLENCE IN THE CLASSROOM

Cory Whitsett The Crimson Tide golf team has a history of producing some of the University’s best athletes and brightest students. Joseph Sykora, a senior in 2008, became the first men’s golfer (from any school) to be a three-time recipient of the Southeastern Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Year award, winning in 2006, 2007 and 2008 with his 4.0 cumulative GPA. Cory Whitsett has since followed with two NCAA Elite 89 Awards (2012 and 2013), the 2014 Bryant Award and was named a Capital One/ CoSIDA Academic All-American in 2013 and 2014. Sykora was a three-time Academic All-American, winning in one of the toughest categories, the at-large division, which includes student-athletes from several sports. Sykora finished his Crimson Tide career by receiving the H. Boyd McWhorter Award, presented to the SEC’s Student-Athlete of the Year. Whitsett became the second Alabama golfer honored with the McWhorter Award in 2014. The 2010, 2011 and 2012 seasons each saw six Alabama golfers earn SEC Academic Honor Roll accolades while five were chosen in 2013. The list includes players such as Bud Cauley, Hunter Hamrick, Lee Knox, Trey Mullinax, Hunter Slatton, Scott Strohmeyer, Phillip Weaver, Cory Whitsett, Bobby Wyatt and Justin Thomas. Cauley and Hamrick also garnered Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-American Scholar honors in 2011 and Hamrick became a two-time honoree in 2012. Whitsett, Wyatt, Strohmeyer and Mullinax all were honored as All-American Scholars in 2013. Whitsett became the first men’s golfer from Alabama to be honored with the NCAA Elite 89 Award in 2012 and made it back-to-back honors in 2013. The NCAA Elite 89 Award is presented to the competitor with the highest GPA at the NCAA Championships. Standing out in the classroom while playing a year-long sport is a feat not easily achieved. Golfers contend with a season that starts in early September and continues through the last week of May with the NCAA Championships. Despite those demands, Alabama has produced 111 Academic All-SEC golfers since 1985. Joseph Joyner was the first Tide golfer to be named to the Academic All-SEC Honor Roll. In 2004, the SEC began its Freshman Academic Honor Roll. Since that time, 13 Crimson Tide freshmen have been honored. Encouraging academic success is as much a part of Alabama’s coaching mantra as is winning championships. Celebrating academic success also is a priority. Six Alabmaa men’s golfers have received Alabama’s highest academic honor for an athlete, The Bryant Award. Michael Thompson is the most recent of the

recipients in 2008. The award is announced each spring and is given to the top male and top female student-athlete at the University, placing emphasis on athletic achievement, academic achievement and leadership. Dicky Pride, Marten Olander, Dan Mutert, Allan MacDonald and Thompson are the men’s golfers who have received the Bryant Award. Olander, an All-American on the golf course and a fourtime Academic All-American, earned the Ben Hogan Award in 1993. Pride is a PGA Tour player. Seawell and assistant coach Jon Howell work closely with the Center for Academic Student Services (CASS). CASS monitors the academic progress of each athlete who wears a Crimson Tide uniform and advises the athletes on areas of study that best suit their capabilities and dreams. Study hall is required for all freshmen and for any athletes whose grades aren’t Academic All-SEC worthy. Jon Dever is Alabama’s Associate Athletics Director for Student Services. The CASS Center is located in the Bryant Academic Center, as is the Champs Lifeskills program. The Bryant Academics Center, which houses the CASS staff and is a frequent stop in the daily lives of Alabama’s student-athletes, is the crown jewel in the Alabama athletic department’s Crimson Tradition Fund facility enhancement campaign. The renovation project at Bryant Hall was completed for $10.3 million in 2005. “This project has been priority one since we started the renovations of our athletic facilities,” said former Alabama athletics director Mal Moore. “Academics are at the center of our mission at Alabama and we wanted to create a place that would aid all our student-athletes in their educational pursuits. I feel very strongly that Bryant Hall will benefit every student-athlete, not just during their years at Alabama, but for a lifetime.” The building’s many amenities include a 48-seat computer lab that boasts brand-new equipment. The computer lab has 25 laptop computers available for student-athletes to check out and use on team road trips. The building features math, English and writing labs along with 40 individual study rooms. A pair of 50-seat classrooms and a 140-seat lecture hall also are available. The lobby of the building showcases the Crimson Tide Academic Hall of Fame with plaques recognizing all of Alabama’s Academic All-America selections.

The Jerry Pate Golf Center at the Ol’ Colony Golf Complex provides the University of Alabama men’s golf team with one of the best practice and playing facilities in collegiate golf. The Pate Golf Center is a private facility that is only utilized by the Alabama golf teams. The Pate Golf Center provides plenty of space for both the men’s and women’s teams with the ability to conduct full practice sessions during inclement weather. The facility has six indoor hitting bays and two indoor putting surfaces. The Pate Golf Center is also equipped with state-of-the-art teaching tools, including the V1 Swing Analysis System, the SAM Putting Lab and Trackman, which aides the coaching staff in ball flight analysis using doppler radar and club fitting. The locker rooms inside the Pate Golf Center feature tour-sized lockers and all of the amenities, while the lounge area includes comfortable seating and a large-screen television. The Ol’ Colony Golf Course was named one of the “Top 5 Best New Public Courses in America” by Golf Digest in 2001 and Golfweek named it one of the top-50 municipal courses in America in 2010. The Jerry Pate-designed course is considered one of the best public courses in the nation. The course is a test for even the most advanced golfer with large bunkers, mature trees and numerous water hazards, including a 25-acre lake that challenges almost every shot. The practice range at the Pate Golf Center, which already provides the Crimson Tide golfers all of the practice components and tools needed to develop, recently finished an expansion and renovation. The practice facility includes a full practice range, putting greens, a chipping area and practice bunkers. The Jerry Pate Golf Center recently has added a new putting green with an expanded chipping and hitting area. The new chipping and hitting areas are complete with new bunkers and practice tees that allow players to hit their own golf balls up to 200 yards into six new target greens.

The host and tournament namesake Jerry Pate is the most successful professional golfer to have worn the Crimson and White. The former Tide golfer and current Champions Tour player proudly lends his name and plays an active role — from team selection to presenting the awards trophies. Pate and Alabama have hosted this event since 1986. Originally, the tournament was held in Pate’s hometown of Pensacola, Fla. He moved the tournament in 1992 to Birmingham’s Shoal Creek, where it remained for five years. In 1997, the JPNI moved to its current home, the Old Overton Club. The strength of the JPNI field makes it a premier team fall gathering. Even the selection committee is a powerful one. The tournament’s selection committee has included PGA greats Arnold Palmer, Ben Crenshaw and Mark McCormack. The committee seeks the highest-ranked teams from the previous season that are expected to again be in the national title hunt. In the fall of 2004, Georgia finished fourth at the JPNI but went on that spring to win the NCAA title. The 1995 JPNI champion Arizona State won the (spring) 1996 NCAA Championship while fall 1997 JPNI participant UNLV didn’t win the JPNI, but the Rebels went on to win the 1998 NCAA title. The 1994 field included all of the top nine team from the 1994 NCAA Championships, including national champion and 1994 Jerry Pate champion, Stanford, which was led by 1994 U.S. Amateur Champion Tiger Woods. Woods also was the 1994 JPNI medalist. Other prominent medalists have included LSU’s David Tomas (1988), Arizona’s Rory Sabbatini (1997), Georgia Tech’s Bryce Molder (2000), Oklahoma State’s Hunter Mahan (2001) and Wake Forest’s Bill Haas (2002). Alabama joined the list of JPNI participants that went on to win the NCAA National Championship. The Tide won the 2012 Jerry Pate Natoinal Intercollegiate and then emerged victorious at the 2013 NCAA Championships. The Crimson Tide has experienced recent success in the Jerry Pate National Intercollegaite, winning five of the past seven years. The Crimson Tide has seen five players capture medalist honors over the years, including David Kirkpatrick in 1991, Joseph Sykora in 2006, Mark Harrell in 2007, Hunter Hamrick in 2009 and Justin Thomas in 2012.

Jerry Pate was a mere 22 years old when he won the United States Open in 1976, and that wasn’t even the first time he’d made major national headlines. He did that in 1974 when he won the United States Amateur — only weeks before he started his senior season on the University of Alabama’s golf team.

HOW IT WORKS Each May, the NCAA hosts six regionals, which are spread around the country and provide for exciting golf from coast to coast. The six-regional format was started at the 2009 NCAA Championships and replaced the old three-regional system that began play in 1992 when the NCAA first instituted a regional format. Each of the six 2015 regional sites will qualify five teams for the NCAA Championship Finals, being held at The Concession Club in Bradenton, Fla., on May 28-June 2, 2015. Those 30 teams then will play 54 holes of stroke play (May 28-30) and cut to the top-15 teams and top 40 individuals for a fourth round of stroke play to determine match-play seedings and the NCAA individual champion. The No. 1 team will face the No. 8 team, No. 2 will face No. 7, No. 3 vs. No. 6 and No. 4 vs. No. 5. Match play quarterfinals and semifinals will be held on June 1, followed by the finals on June 2. Teams are selected for regional competition based upon their overall tournament finishes and head-to-head finishes against other teams that are in their region. Selection is made by a regional committee compromised of head coaches. From 1989 through the 2008 NCAA Championships, the finals consisted of 72 holes of play with a cut after 54 holes to the top-15 teams.
