Matt Seppanen - Men's Golf

Senior Matt Seppanen (Rochester Hills, Mich./Rochester Hills) fired an 8-under-par 205 to win the NCAA Central Regional Championship last weekend in San Antonio, Texas. Seppanen, who has played in only six tournaments this season due to a back injury, shot 68-68-69 to take a two-stoke victory over Jamie Rodgers of Nebraska. His score of 205 is the second lowest 54-hole tournament score in NU history. He is also NU's first NCAA Regional Champion.
