Division-I head football coach qualifies for his state amateur
Tulsa isn't bringing back men's golf until next year, but one of its own has just qualified for one of the top tournaments in the state. That player also happens to be the Golden Hurricane's head football coach. Advertisement Tre Lamb shot 3-over 75 Thursday at Forest Ridge in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, to qualify for the Oklahoma State Amateur. The 35-year-old Lamb, who was hired in December after leading Gardner-Webb to its first Big South title in almost two decades, went out in even-par 36 before carding a bounce-back birdie, his second of the day, at the par-4 15th following a two-hole stretch of bogey-double. Lamb now advances to the championship, which is set for July 21-24 at Cedar Ridge Country Club, also in Broken Arrow. The tournament features 18 holes of stroke play followed by a 32-man match-play bracket.

Tulsa football coach Tre Lamb qualifies for Oklahoma amateur golf championship
Between practices, team meetings and film sessions, it's understandable that a lot of college football coaches would want to escape to the golf course in their offseason free time. But one coach in the heartland has turned that escape into a pretty impressive feat. Tre Lamb, the head football coach at the University of Tulsa, earned his spot in the Oklahoma Golf Association's State Amateur Championship by firing a 3-over 75 in a qualifying event Thursday at The Club at Forest Ridge in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Lamb, 35, has yet to coach a game for Tulsa. He joined the program in December, replacing former NFL wide receiver Ryan Switzer, who took over as interim head coach for Tulsa's final game of the 2024 season after the school fired Kevin Wilson. Lamb spent the better part of a decade as an assistant with a few different programs before landing his first head coaching job at Gardner-Webb, an FCS team. He needed just three seasons to lead the Runnin' Bulldogs to their first Big South championship in nearly 20 years. Lamb now looks to recreate that same success at a Tulsa program that has struggled recently. The Golden Hurricane have a combined record 7-17 over the last two seasons. Before he can begin that turnaround, though, he has some business to tend to on the golf course. The Oklahoma State Amateur takes place at Cedar Ridge Country Club in Broken Arrow and features an 18-hole qualifier on Monday, July 21, to determine the field for the 32-man match play bracket, which will be played out July 22-24. Tulsa recently made headlines when it reinstated its men's golf program, which is set to begin competing again in 2026 under the tutelage of newly-named head coach Brandon Wilkins.
