MARANA, Ariz. - The Saint Mary's men's golf team left it all out on the course in Wednesday's final round of the 2026 NCAA Marana Regional at Gallery Golf Club, putting together their low round of the tournament at 9-under-par to remain in ninth place and end their postseason run.
Senior Aidan Lee had been the low shooter for the Gaels all week and added to his score on Wednesday, carding a team low 66 (-6) which included six birdies and zero bogeys. The 6-under-par final round for the Pasadena native moved him to 10-under for the tournament, solidifying a top six finish for his lowest three round score of the 2025-26 season. Lee was just 2-under through the front nine as the Gaels teed off on one to start the day, but birdied the final three holes coming in to crack the top ten for his second top ten finish of the year.
Lee was not the only Gael to shine in Wednesday's final round as all four counting scores finished in red figures for Saint Mary's for the first time this week. Inigo Izuzquiza, Sam Baumuller and Mitchell Hoey all carded 71's to finish 1-under-par. Izuzquiza had three birdies on the front nine to get off to a hot start while Baumuller and Hoey each played the back nine under par to get into red figures. Like Lee, Baumuller also went birdie-birdie-birdie to finish and play his final two rounds of the regional at 3-under-par. Hoey got into red figures for the first time this week with his final round of 1-under. The fifth year senior battled through an up-and-down round which included an eagle on the par five 11th. After bogeys on 12 and 13, Hoey would then birdie the par five 16th and par-out to stay at 1-under.
Lee was just three strokes off the low individual score of a player not on an advancing team to qualify for nationals as Alabama's William Jennings shared the individual title at 15-under-par with the Crimson Tide finishing in sixth place as a team, just a stroke out of the top five advancing teams.
Lee's tied for sixth place finish went down as the best individual finish from a Gael at an NCAA Regional since program great Jonathan De Los Reyes finished tied for sixth at the 2013 NCAA Pullman Regional. Reyes was one of two Gaels to place inside the top ten in that regional as Saint Mary's finished third to advance to their second ever National Championship.
