GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - After becoming the first Green Bay golfer to win the Horizon League title in more than 10 years, junior Chad Ebert (Kenosha, Wis.) will head to Ann Arbor, Mich., next week to compete at the 2012 NCAA Golf Championships Ann Arbor Regional from May 17-19.

The 54-hole event will be held at the par-71, 6,723-yard University of Michigan Golf Course. The Ann Arbor Regional will feature 13 teams and 10 individuals, with the low five teams and the low individual not on an advancing team moving on to the NCAA Finals held at Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles from May 29-June 3.

He became the first Phoenix golfer to win the Horizon League championship since Shaun Rezachek in 2001 and the second all-time. Rezachek was also the individual medalist in 1998.
