Change of the Guard

An update on men’s golf.

Led by senior Hayden Shieh ’18, the men’s golf team made a run at the NCAA championships—their second appearance at a regional in program history. Winning three out of 11 tournaments in the regular season, the team qualified for the Raleigh postseason tournament. The competition was tough for the three-day tournament. Up-and-comer first-year Jack Kaneshiro ’21 led the pack, finishing two under par. Close behind him was Shieh at one under par. Shieh finished his career with four NCAA appearances and a ranking of 26th in the nation. Despite Shieh’s departure, the guys have a new strong senior leader on the green. Derek Ackerman ’19 used the summer to home his strokes at the U.S. Amateur Championship in Pebble Beach, California.
