Poston Ranked First in the Nation

J.T. Poston
Catamount junior J.T. Poston is ranked number one nationally in men's golf rankings according to GolfStat (Oct. 29).

Poston recorded four Top Five finishes in the first four events this season, claiming individual medalist honors in back-to-back events to open the season. According to available research, Poston's No. 1 ranking is the highest ever achieved by a WCU men's golfer during a season.

"J.T.'s play this fall has been very special. Starting the fall season with a victory is what all players dream of during the summer. Not only did he accomplish that, but he won the next event as well," said WCU first-year head coach Bryant Odom.

"The tournament this past weekend at Kiawah's Ocean Course was arguably the best field we will see all year and J.T. further proved he is one of the top players in the nation by finishing second."

Odom added, "Throughout my career, I have had the privilege to play with and to coach a lot of great players, many of which are now winners on the PGA Tour - and J.T. belongs right at the top. His much deserved attention and ranking proves that WCU golf is moving in the right direction and is a place where players can reach their potential and shine."
