NCAA Men’s Golf Central/Midwest Regionals kick off

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) -- The 2025 NCAA Division II Men's Golf Central/Midwest Regional is officially underway.

Golfers from multiple colleges across Missouri will be participating, including Missouri Western's Jeffery Johnston, who went to high school at Bishop LeBlond.

"It's a good course to watch golf on, just good natural settings," St. Joseph Sports Commission director Brett Esley said. "I think this is a community that has a great golf tradition. Folks that love golf like to watch these events, but there's also some local intrigue, with guys like Jeffrey Johnston from Missouri Western.

"He plays (at the) Saint Joseph Country Club, has a lot of family, friends and followers of his here. Couple all that together and we've got a really good championship environment for golf this week."

The championship will be ongoing until Saturday, May 10. The top three teams and the top two student-athletes not with a team from each regional will advance to the finals at the PGA national resort in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, from May 19-23.
