Men's Golf Posts Historic Round, Takes Commanding Lead at Corvallis Regional
May 19, 2026 | Men's Golf
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Powered by four rounds in the 60s, No. 17 Oklahoma men's golf surged into the lead Tuesday at the NCAA Corvallis Regional, firing a program NCAA Regional-record 19-under 265 at Trysting Tree Golf Club. The Sooners shattered their previous NCAA Regional low round by six strokes and set the program record for lowest 36-hole total in regional play.
Oklahoma (1, -28) entered the day in second place and five shots clear of the 54-hole, five-team cut line before posting the lowest round of the tournament to separate from the field. The Sooners now hold an eight-shot lead entering Wednesday's final round and sit 22 shots above the cut line as they look to secure a 15th consecutive NCAA Championships appearance, which would extend the nation's second-longest active streak.
All four of Oklahoma's counting scores Tuesday were 67 or better at the par-71 course, with each of those Sooners positioned inside the top 10 individually. Junior Ryder Cowan (1, -9) leads the field, while sophomore Clark Van Gaalen (2, -8) sits one shot back in second.
Cowan carded a bogey-free 5-under 66, his second bogey-free round in as many days, to move into solo first. The junior All-American is seeking the third victory of his career, which would move him into the program's all-time top five in career wins. His 36-hole total of 133 (-9) ranks as the third-lowest 36-hole regional score in school history.
Van Gaalen matched Cowan with a 5-under 66 to remain firmly in contention for his first career victory. The Turlock, Calif., native is also on pace for his first top-five finish of the season and third of his career.
PJ Maybank III (T4, -6) vaulted 18 spots up the leaderboard after firing a 5-under 66, one shot shy of his career low. The junior enters Wednesday in contention for his first career top-five finish.
All-American Jase Summy (T9, -5) climbed 13 spots with a second-round 67 (-4). A par-or-better round Wednesday would tie Drew Goodman's program record of 96 career par-or-better rounds.
Matthew Troutman rounded out the OU lineup Tuesday with an 80 as the senior shares 75th.
Oklahoma is seeking its ninth NCAA Regional title and sixth under head coach Ryan Hybl. A victory Wednesday would mark the first time in program history the Sooners have won three consecutive NCAA Regional championships.
Behind Oklahoma, unranked Purdue sits second at 20-under, followed by host Oregon State at 13-under, UCLA at 9-under and top-seeded No. 6 Arkansas at 8-under to round out the top five. Georgia Southern and Liberty are tied for sixth at 6-under entering the final round, with second-seeded No. 7 Texas Tech in eighth at 3-under.
The 13-team regional is one of six NCAA Championship qualifying sites. The top five teams and the top individual not on an advancing team will earn spots at the NCAA Championship, set for May 29-June 3 at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad.
Final-round tee times will be announced Tuesday evening, and live scoring will be available via Scoreboard powered by Clippd.
