In addition to their 18-hole success, the GW team also shattered the records for the lowest 36-hole team score, finishing at -20, and the lowest 54-hole score at -24. These milestones signify a new era of excellence for the GW men’s golf program and highlight their dedication and hard work.
Notably, Vaughn McMeans played a pivotal role in these achievements and earned A-10 Golfer of the Week honors for the second time. Previously, McMeans had distinguished himself by securing three A-10 Rookie of the Week accolades last season, underscoring his growth and contributions to the team.
Looking ahead, the GW men’s golf team is gearing up for the Monterrey Collegiate Classic in Mexico, which they will host on October 24-25. This upcoming competition provides another opportunity for the team to showcase their talent and build on their recent successes. Head coach Chuck Scheinost, now entering his 13th season in the 2025-26 golf season, has played an instrumental role in the team’s development and success.
Under Scheinost’s leadership, GW golf has consistently excelled, finishing in the top four of the conference championship seven times, with three of those finishes occurring in the last four seasons. Scheinost, who previously coached at the University of Northern Colorado, improved his team’s performance significantly and has continued to elevate the GW program during his tenure.
Another key player under Scheinost is Jakub Hrinda, who has made a name for himself by earning two-time All-Conference honors and back-to-back PING All-Region accolades. During the record-breaking 2022-23 season, Hrinda recorded the program’s lowest scores for individual 18-hole (62), 36-hole (132), and 54-hole (199), contributing to the team’s overall success.
Additionally, GW achieved the three lowest 54-hole team scores in program history during the same season. Both McMeans and teammate Manuel Barbachano celebrated individual tournament victories, further strengthening the team’s reputation for excellence.
GW’s historic achievements are reminiscent of past successes, such as former player Logan Lowe’s notable collegiate career, where he secured five titles and was named A-10 Golfer of the Year in 2017. These accomplishments highlight a tradition of excellence within the program that Scheinost has been committed to maintaining.
Beyond their competitive success, the GW golf team has also been recognized as an All-Academic Team, maintaining a team GPA above 3.0. The team has collaborated with the Salute Military Golf Association, demonstrating their commitment to giving back and supporting wounded veterans.
