Crossroads League Release | TU Honors Page

UPLAND, Ind. – Will Schuitema was named the Crossroads League Men's Golfer of the Week on Monday, after winning the Battle at Blackthorn with a record-setting performance on September 22 and 23.

Schuitema broke Taylor's 36-hole scoring record with a 133 over the two-day event, finishing at 11 shots under par and beating the runner-up finisher by four strokes for his first collegiate victory.

Schuitema posted scores of 68 and 65 at the event, posting a new personal-best with the round of 65 and logging his first two sub-par rounds of the fall season.

The award marks the first for Schuitema in his Taylor career, and is the second weekly honor for Taylor men's golf this fall.

Taylor Athletics collected five weekly league honors on Monday, with Schuitema joining Jaynie Halterman (women's country) and Nathan Parker, Caleb Ranzau and Lucas Shilts (football) to move TU's total for the 2025-2026 year to 16 athlete-of-the-week awards.

Schuitema and the Trojans are back in action on September 29 and 30 in Winona Lake, Indiana, while they compete in the Battle at Stonehenge.
