The Moorhead Country Club, in another step up in the direction of the course, has a new general manager, although he's not new to the club. Chris Larson made the jump from Osgood Golf Course in Fargo to the GM position at a golf course where he first started in the bag room at age 13.

North Dakota State, meanwhile, captured the Summit League men's title earlier this week behind a roster consisting mostly of North Dakota and Minnesota recruits. One, Fargo Shanley's Jake Skarperud, recaps his four-year career heading to the NCAA regionals.

The Summit League men's golf championships begin Monday at Longbow Golf Club in Mesa, Arizona, and North Dakota State is one of the teams expected to battle it out for the title.
