2025-26 REWIND: UP THE LEADERBOARD

Ryan Henneman | Jr. - Phoenix, Md.

Salisbury men's golf clawed its way up the Division III pecking order in the second season of its modern era, reaching as high as No. 6 regionally before finishing the year ranked No. 9 in Region III. The Sea Gulls won two team tournaments - the McDaniel Spring Invitational on Mar. 28-29 and the Sea Gull Invitational on Apr. 11-12 - and finished top-three in five other events across the fall and spring.

Sophomore Ryan Henneman continued to make himself a household name for the Sea Gulls, winning both the PCT Melee (Oct. 19-20) and the Sea Gull Invitational while recording five top-five finishes and six top-10s. Local freshman Colton Thomas (James M. Bennett) joined Henneman as one of just two SU golfers to play all 18 rounds in the season, while Alex Langford (15) and Gage Bandy (10) return after taking the course for over half of the season.

2026-27 Salisbury Men's Golf Roster

Ryan Henneman & Dalton Deardorff, 9-9-25

We're super excited to have our first full class of upperclassmen that know the system, know how we run things, and have played a lot of tournament golf, plus three newcomers who have a chance to join that lineup as well. We've also got a great schedule with some really high-level tournaments against some high-end teams, so we're excited to see where we stack up this fall.
