Bruin swingers take UCLA's 103rd NCAA title

UCLA Men's Golf brought home another NCAA title on May 31 when senior Kevin Chappell made a par on the 18th hole, giving UCLA a one-shot victory at the 111th NCAA Men's Golf Championship, hosted by Purdue University.

The title is UCLA's 103rd NCAA Championship, and the third for the month of May: Women's Water Polo won the university's record 101st NCAA championship and Women's Tennis took the 102nd.

Chappell won the individual title and led the fourth-ranked Bruins to their first men's golf title since 1988. He finished at 2-under 286 and was the only player in the field under par for the event. He became the first UCLA player to win NCAA medalist honors.

"The feeling I have right now is better than anything," said Chappell. "To win individually is great, but it becomes even more special because the team also won. I can't say enough about this team. All season long we've always been there to pick each other up and that's what championship teams do."
