SAN DIEGO – San Diego State men's golf head coach Ryan Donovan has announced the signing of Nathan Sampson to a National Letter of Intent.
Sampson comes to The Mesa from Great Oak High School in Temecula, California, where he was the 2022 Inland Empire Golfer of the Year and a three-time all-league selection. Sampson also captained the Wolfpack and has led GOHS to three league titles. Last spring, Great Oak HS was a perfect 14-0 in dual matches. He also won the 2022 AJGA championship and advanced to match play at the 2021 U.S. Junior Amateur. A scholar-athlete, Sampson's father, Jeff, is the PGA professional at Redhawk Golf Club in Temecula.
"Nathan is an unbelievable kid with a great family," Donovan said. "He is hard working, motivated, and competitive. He will be a great addition to our team and we are so excited to have him part of the Aztec family."
