Men's Golf (1966)

The 1966 edition of the USSF varsity golf team was the strongest since the University has participated in Intercollegiate golf. The team's schedule was an ambitious one, including such local golf powers as San Jose State, Santa Clara, Cal, Sacramento State, and Stanford. The team competed in the Western Intercollegiate Championship in Santa Cruz, and the NCAA National Collegiate Golf Championship at Stanford.

One of the outstanding golfers this year was Jim Schroder. a Junior transfer student from City College, who last Fall was the medalist in the city of San Francisco qualifying rounds for the National Public Link Tournament and subsequently represented the City in the national tournament in Pittsburg as a semi-finalist.

Another standout was sophomore Bill Reid, the number one man on last year's frosh team. He had extensive experience, including a victory in the Philippine National High School Tournament, and the Alabama State High School Tournament. Other standouts were Dennis Mori, Ron Johnson, and Mark Avelar who were augmented by stalwarts Dan Kowall, Jeff Ryan, Paul Finigan, Mark Anticevich, Doug Grant, and football star Dave Olerich (TheDon).
