As many of you know, Ben made an incredible run at the U.S. Amateur this summer, before falling short in the final against Sam Bennett. But I said the same thing to Ben that I said to Ollie Osborne and Austin Greaser, when they lost in their U.S. Amateur finals. If ever this is a time to be OK with getting second place, this is the time. Ben will play in next year's Masters Tournament and U.S. Open...but not before he completes one final season with his teammates at Georgia Southern.

Neal captured the West Penn Open and the Penn State Am titles this summer and we spoke a lot about his start in the game and also the transfer process that led him to the Buckeyes. I know that the transfer portal is a hot topic in collegiate athletics.....so thought that Neal would be the perfect person to break it all down for everyone here at The Back of the Range.
