Big Rapids, Mich. - The Ferris State University men's golf team will host the 2026 Midwest/Central Super Regional slated to be held Thursday thru Saturday, May 7-9, at FSU's Katke Golf Course.
The announcement of 80 teams and 32 individual student-athletes for regional competition was released this week by the NCAA-II Men's Golf Selection Committee. It will mark the Bulldogs' 21st trip to the NCAA postseason in the last 23 years.
The Midwest/Central Regional will be hosted by Ferris State University and will consist of 10 teams from the Midwest Region along with 10 from the Central Region. Four individuals from each region will also compete in the 54-hole tournament.
Admission to the tournament is free.
At a minimum, the top three teams and the top two student-athletes not with a team from each regional will advance to the finals set for May 18-22 at the Boulder Creek Golf Club in Boulder City, Nev. The remaining eight team berths will be allocated based on the regions represented in the prior year's head-to-head medal play portion of the championships, with the maximum number of teams from a given region capped at seven. The finals will be hosted by the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.
Along with host Ferris State, those teams from the Midwest Region who will be making the super regional tourney appearance are top-seeded Grand Valley State followed by Findlay, Missouri S&T, Missouri-St. Louis, Rockhurst, FSU, Davenport, Tiffin, Wayne State and Hillsdale in ranking order. FSU is the Midwest Region's sixth seed.
Meanwhile, Central Oklahoma is the Central Region's top seed and followed by Central Missouri, Harding, Washburn, Winona State, Pittsburg State, Arkansas Tech, Southern Arkansas, Missouri Western and Arkansas-Fort Smith.
In 2017, the Bulldogs earned runner-up honors in the 2017 NCAA-II Midwest/Central Super Regional in Kearney, Neb., before going on to a national quarterfinal finish. In 2019, the Bulldogs placed tied for third at the super regional and reached the NCAA D2 National Championships, placing 20th overall. FSU also made the field five years ago in 2021, finishing 10th overall in Super Regional play, before earning a berth and placing ninth overall in 2023. In 2024, the Bulldogs placed fifth in the Midwest Region and went on to a ninth-place national finish. FSU took eight place in regional action a year ago in Joplin, Mo.
This year makes this the 21st time in the past 23 years in which the Bulldogs have had representation in the NCAA Tournament when it has been held. The stretch of NCAA Championship representation in men's golf ranks as one of the best stretches in the country.
Ferris State placed third overall this spring at the 2026 GLIAC Championships held April 16-17 in Augusta, Mich.
