What They Are Saying
Wingate men's golf alumnus Collin Welborn ('25)
 
"My time as a member of the Wingate men's golf team was one of the most memorable in my life. I went from coming in as a freshman not knowing anyone to starting to bond with a group of guys that would later become like family. We got closer and closer as a team the longer we were together and we made so many good memories."
 
"I loved the competition on the golf course driving each other to be better, and I loved showing the internationals all the great things that America has to offer. Coach JD Lamm has put together this year's schedule so the team will be ready for NCAAs in the spring. I am fortunate to be able to follow their progress. I'm thankful that God blessed me with the opportunity to be part of the Wingate men's golf team."
