CHAUTAUQUA, N.Y. — Troy Loughry’s last round Friday as a Butler County Community College golfer, and in the finale of the high-stakes National Junior College Athletic Association national championship tournament, fortified his legacy as a Pioneer.

The BC3 sophomore, only by shooting a 71 after rounds of 74s and a 75, became the college’s only two-time first-team All-American.

Golfers who place first through sixth at the national championship tournament played on the Chautauqua Golf Club Lake Course in Chautauqua, N.Y., become first-team All-Americans.

Loughry placed fifth in 2022.

His four-round 294 tied golfers from Sandhills Community College, Pinehurst, N.C., and Niagara County Community College, Sanborn, N.Y., who were awarded sixth and seventh places. Loughry placed fifth because his final-round score was lower than that of Noah Maness, Sandhills, and of Sean Barrett, Niagara.

Loughry and teammates Liam Kosior, Cory Voltz, Jack Mason and Tanner Hohmann finished fifth, marking the golf program’s highest place in six appearances to the national championship tournament since 2009.
