GLADEWATER, Texas -- For a fourth straight year, the LeTourneau men's golf team took home the Energy Weldfab Tempest Intercollegiate title.
The No. 16-ranked YellowJackets pulled away from the field in Tuesday's final round to claim the first team title of the season. LeTourneau finished with a 23-over, 887 (296-300-291) to place first in a field of 11 teams.
LeTourneau has won the tournament every year since 2023.
