We came within one stroke of winning the NCAA Championship last year. This years team is just as good or better. Coach Seawell has done a good job with the program. We are competing for championships and putting players on the PGA Tour.

The No. 3 Alabama men's golf team continued its impressive play on Tuesday securing the program's third straight win in the Puerto Rico Classic with a final-round 14-under-par 274 at the 6,902-yard, par-72 River Course at the Rio Mar Country Club.

"We really played well from top to bottom in the lineup this week," Alabama head coach Jay Seawell said. "It was a great battle with Oklahoma throughout the tournament - they played very well.

"OU had a one-shot lead with three holes to play and our guys really responded," Seawell said. "That was what I really liked about the win. I made sure our guys knew we were down by one shot with three holes to play. I wanted to see how they would respond, and we played 4-under on the final three holes to win the tournament."

Man, they did let a NC get away last year. Per the scores of the players, they are just picking up where they left off from last year. :clap:
