After winning the Minnesota State Open earlier this month, an unforgettable summer continued for Valparaiso University men’s golf rising fifth-year senior Caleb VanArragon (Blaine, Minn. / Blaine).

VanArragon won the Minnesota State Amateur in resounding fashion this past week, obliterating the event’s previous score-to-par record by going 23 strokes under par, 12 strokes better than his closest competitor. The tournament was held July 17-19 at Minneapolis Golf Club in St. Louis Park, Minn. He carded 66-62-65 in the event for a 54-hole score of 193.
