Ducks Close Strong at Auburn Regional
05/14/25 | Men's Golf
AUBURN, Ala. – Oregon wrapped up play at the NCAA Auburn Regional at Auburn University Club on Wednesday, finishing ninth as a team to close out the 2025 season.
The Ducks put together their strongest round of the regional in the finale, shooting a combined 5-over 293 to move up three spots on the leaderboard but still falling below the cut line. The host team took the regional title at 32 under, while Texas A&M, UCLA, Purdue and Georgia Tech all clinched spots at the NCAA Championships.
"We played better today but we could never sustain any good play this week," head coach Casey Martin said. "It was a frustrating week."
Greyson Leach led the Ducks in scoring in the final round, shooting an even-par 72 for his second par-or-better result of the week. The senior finished tied for 18th individually, his fifth top-20 finish of the season and the second time in his career that he has placed top-20 at a regional.
"I'm sad for Greyson and Eric [Doyle] that they didn't get to play at nationals," Martin added. "They had a great career."
Auburn's Jackson Koivun claimed medalist honors, while Kennesaw State's Claes Borregaard tied for second individually, claiming the regional's lone at-large spot to advance to the national championships.
How It Happened
After a trio of pars to start the round, Leach carded back-to-back birdies on the 13th and 14th. He gave one stroke back with a bogey on No. 16, but made birdie on the 18th to make the turn at 2 under. The senior carded seven pars and two bogeys to finish the tournament at 2 over, climbing five spots on the leaderboard and into the top 20.
Aiden Krafft put together his strongest round of the week with a 1-over 73. The junior started his day with a bogey but responded well, making nine pars and a pair of birdies in his next 11 holes to move into the red. A double bogey on No. 4 put him back to 1 over before he finished with five pars.
Eric Doyle and Jay Gould-Healy rounded out the counting scores, each carding a 2-over 74 with three birdies. Doyle tied with Krafft in 38th place individually at 8 over, while Gould-Healy tied for 43rd at 9 over for the week.
Jeffrey Kwak made his postseason debut in the final round, firing a 4-over 76.
