The student-athletes from these illustrious institutions demonstrated tremendous skill and sportsmanship over two days of exciting competition. After the first round, the match was tight with the three teams separated by 13 shots. During day two, the United States Military Academy emerged victorious, finishing with a team score of 850, 14 under par. A special commendation goes to USMA Cadet John Heckel Jr., the tournament medalist, who delivered two spectacular rounds of 64 and 67, finishing on 13 under par, 131.

At the Collegiate-Am, the Naval Academy emerged victorious with a team score of 735. Gary Hendrickson, Chad Evans, Matt Kuntz, and Navy player Chip Deegan led the way with a low gross of 60 and a sparkling back 9 of 26, to beat Matt Freitag, Adam Huddleston, Sean Hegarty, and Army player Dragon Theam in a match of cards.

HISTORY

Building on the prestige of the Service Academy Golf Classic, which ran from 1993 to 2012 and the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy contested annually among Army, Navy, and Air Force football teams, the Commander-in-Chief's Cup honors past, present, and future service members while celebrating friendship, shared values, and striving for excellence.

A key component of the Commander-in-Chief's Cup is the Collegiate-Am, where amateurs play with one Academy player in a shamble format. Proceeds from this event enable the Service Academies Golf Foundation to hold the Commander-in-Chief's Cup and donate back to the Academy golf teams. This year, the Collegiate-Am will be held at noon on Monday, September 29, 2025, with dinner to follow. (Jacket and tie or military uniform are required.)

Next year, the 3rd Commander-in-Chief's Cup will be contested at Winged Foot Golf Club in New York from September 29 to October 1, 2025. More details will be available in the Spring.
