Rising junior Adam Samneg\u00e5rd shot rounds of 70-64 (-6) to take sixth place in the Ligma (Professional) Tour&#8217;s event at the par 70\u00a0K\u00f6pings GC in Sweden. Freshman Arnav Arkanth shot even par (73-71) in windy conditions to take home the gold at Aspley Guise and Woburn Sands Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both players have had a solid summer of golf in preparation for their&nbsp;arrival in Silver City next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ligma event was&nbsp;Samneg\u00e5rd&#8217;s&nbsp;second pro event of the summer and his second top 10 playing with pros. He&#8217;s slated to play in another event over the weekend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arkanath won the championship at Aslpley Guise, a stunning golf course in England. Last month, he was extremely sharp in winning his final High School Championship with a 68, and netted a top-8 for his County team against older amateurs with rounds of 75-73-72.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Samneg\u00e5rd&nbsp;was a top performer for GCCC and has made great strides, despite limited action in the Jawhawk Conference. He led the Broncos&nbsp;to the NJCAA Championship where they finished a school record fourth place while he finished T14 to nail a spot as a NJCAA All-American.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Citing a better mental game as he grows in maturity,&nbsp;Samneg\u00e5rd&nbsp;is quick to give credit to the GCCC coaching staff. &#8220;My attitude out on the course has been amazing and I don&#8217;t know how to thank my previous coaches; Phil Terpstra, Jason Hase and Zac Miller. They have pushed me so much these two years and my mental game has changed a lot.&#8221; Hase was the former PGA Professional at Silver City GC in the late 1990s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both players are expect to arrive on campus in mid-August.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WNMU AthleticsDakota Spillers SILVER CITY \u2013 The two newest golfers on the men&#8217;s golf team continued their strong summer play over the weekend as they both<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1728,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,41,23,469],"tags":[42,474],"class_list":["post-1784","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-division-ii","category-golf","category-top-news","category-western-new-mexico","tag-golf","tag-western-new-mexico"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1784","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1784"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1784\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1785,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1784\/revisions\/1785"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1784"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1784"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newmexicosports.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1784"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
