Golfweek named UVA Golf team members Ben James and Bryan Lee to its preseason All-America team, and put the ‘Hoos #2 in its preseason national rankings.
James has been named a first-team All-American by Golfweek for each of his first three seasons, the only player in program history to capture multiple first-team All-America accolades.
Lee was an honorabl- mention All-American as a junior last season.
The pair also landed on the Haskins Award Preseason Watch List earlier this week.
Virginia was the 2025 NCAA runner-up, and returns five of its six golfers that competed in last year’s historic NCAA Tournament run.
Four returning players are ranked in the Top 50 of the latest World Amateur Golf Ranking – James (No. 2), Lee (No. 30), Paul Chang (No. 35) and Josh Duangmanee (No. 44)
The Cavaliers begin their fall schedule at the Invitational at the Honors Course (Sept. 15-16) in Ooltewah, Tenn.
