Stanford led wire-to-wire to capture its eighth national championship, despite being the 12th seed at the event played at the par-70 Robert Trent Jones-designed Golden Horseshoe Golf Club course in Williamsburg, Va. The Cardinal, coached by National Coach of the Year Conrad Ray and paced by third-place Rob Grube, earned a 12-stroke victory. Grube registered 18 birdies over the four-day tournament and would become one of a school-record five Stanford players to earn All-America honors in the same season. The Cardinal captured seven tournament victories over the course of the season, with three players - Grube, Zack Miller and freshman Joseph Bramlett - earning individual titles.

Stanford ended a 41-year NCAA-title drought with a 23-under par performance at Stonebridge Country Club in McKinney, Texas. William Yanagisawa's final-round 64 punctuated the team's four-stroke victory, but it wasn't the team's best round in the tournament. That honor went to Notah Begay III, who shot an NCAA Championship-record 62 in the second round. Stanford's top five during the tournament were Yanagisawa (third), Notah Begay III (fifth), Casey Martin, Steve Burdick and Brad Lanning, who combined on a score of 1,129 to give coach Wally Goodwin his first NCAA title.

Stanford captured its sixth national championship in 16 years, at Broadmoor Golf Course in Colorado Springs, Colo. Under legendary coach Bud Finger, Stanford went through its dual-meet season 11-2, with its only loss coming to its alumni. Art Schroeder won the Pacific Coast Conference individual championship and captained the Indians to the national crown on a team that included Bob Blackburn, Fred Brown, Warren Daily, Stew Ledbetter, and Grant Spaeth. Stanford shot 578 to edge North Carolina by two strokes.

After a two-year layoff due to World War II, the Indians got back to the business of winning national titles. Coach Eddie Twiggs led his golfers to its fifth national championship since 1938. The foursome of Frank McCann, Bob Rosburg, Jack Shuler and Bob Cardinal led Stanford to a 36-hole score of 619, five strokes better than Michigan, at the Springdale Golf Club in Princeton, N.J.

The Indians' fourth NCAA title in five seasons was a co-championship with LSU. Sandy Tatum became the Indians' first individual champion, shooting a 142 on Notre Dame's golf course to win the individual title in South Bend, Ind. Tatum, a Rhodes Scholar, went on to a successful career in the Navy and as a lawyer in San Francisco.

Back-to-back national titles established the Indian program, and a third one in four years made it a dynasty. Columbus, Ohio, was the site for the team's third title under coach Eddie Twiggs, shooting 580 in the 36-hole tournament. Warren Berl and Bud Finger, members of the last championship squad, led the Indians again, teaming with Bud Brownell to form the nucleus of the team. Conference champion Brownell was Stanford's top golfer at the NCAAs with a score of 143, followed by Finger's 144, Berl's 146, and Dee Replogle's 147.

The Indians became back-to-back champions in 1939 as Warren Berl established himself as one of the school's all-time best golfers. Prior to nationals, Berl became the school's first conference champion, as he parlayed that into a 36-hole score of 147 at the NCAAs at Wakonda Country Club in Des Moines, Iowa. His second-place finish at nationals helped the Indians beat Northwestern, 612-614. It would be the first of two team titles for Berl, who also won in 1941.

The Indians first golf championship came in Louisville, Ky., and began a string of four titles over a five-year span. Stanford became the first team from the western states to win the NCAAs, a tournament that began in 1897. The Indians shot 601 on the 36-hole course to beat Oklahoma by eight strokes for the title. The Indians' four lowest scores were John Wallace (148), Art Doering (150), Bill Boyd (151) and Brown Cannon (152).
