Good morning, LSU Fam. The No. 7 LSU Men’s Golf team claimed its first tournament win of the season, going 4-1 over No. 18 North Carolina at the Jackson T. Stephens Cup. The tournament was held at the par-70, 6,530-yard Shoreacres course.

The Tigers’ first win in match play came from freshman Dan Hayes. The Manchester, England, native was down one heading into hole six but turned it around, going up one and then quickly stacking a lead of four that became insurmountable for the Tar Heel competition. Hayes claimed the win with a result of 4&3.

⚽️: SCOUTING REPORT

🔼 Four, Never More. Some players leave memories. Others leave legacies. But a rare few become immortal.

Before Kevin Faulk, Leonard Fournette and Clyde Edwards-Helaire carried the mantle of Tiger running backs, there was Charles Alexander, the bruising tailback from Galveston, Texas, who put LSU football on his shoulders in the late 1970s. Now, more than four decades later, his name and jersey number 4 will forever be etched into Tiger Stadium history.

On September 13, 2025, at halftime of LSU’s SEC battle against Florida, Alexander joined Billy Cannon, Tommy Casanova and Jerry Stovall as the fourth LSU football player to have his jersey retired.

That magical March, with a roster stacked with homegrown talent, lifted LSU back into national relevance and cemented Brady’s place in program history. It’s also why he now joins the LSU Athletics Hall of Fame.
