TicketsCINCINNATI – Cincinnati junior men's golfer Ryan Ford has earned a bid to the NCAA's Urbana Regional, May 12-14. The action will take place at the Atkins Golf Course.
The top five teams in each of the six regionals, as well as the top individual not on any of those squads, will advance to the national championship in Carlsbad, Calif. (May 23-28).
This marks the program's fourth-straight year in the postseason, the best streak in school history. The prior three instances saw the first-ever team appearance, at the Las Vegas Regional in 2023, while Sam Jean qualified as an individual in Columbus in 2022 and Ty Gingerich in West Lafayette in 2024.
Ford has been a standout for the Bearcats this season, leading the team with a season-low stroke average of 72.20. He's recorded six top-25 finishes, claimed the individual title at the Bearcat Invitational in the fall, and secured a runner-up finish at the Tiger Invitational (April 7-8).
Individuals joining Ford in Urbana include Hunter Thomson (Michigan), Jack Schoenberger (Kentucky), Paul Beauvy (Iowa State), Patton Samuels (Austin Peay), Anthony Delisanti, (Valparaiso), Clay Merchant (Indiana), Ben Cors (Dayton), Titus Boswell (IU Indy) and Trey Wall (Murray State).
