Men’s Golf Adds Trent Trousdale

TROY, Ala. – Troy men's golf head coach Forrest Schultz finalized his early signing class with the addition of Huntsville High School standout Trent Trousdale, the first-year head coach announced Thursday.

"Trent is a top 210 ranked player in the 2022 class and is probably one of the most consistent players in the state," Schultz said. "He is a steady player on the course but also has the ability to fire off low rounds as well."

Trousdale is the No. 4 ranked player in the state of Alabama among the class of 2022 per the Junior Golf Scoreboard and ranks ninth overall in the state. He is a three-time selection to the Southern Junior Golf Tour Cup (2018, 2019, 2020).

He finished third at the SJGT Hampton Grove Junior Class and fifth in the SJGT The Canebrake Junior Classic during the summer of 2020 in consecutive weeks. This past summer, Trousdale turned in a trio of top 10 finishes and was the 2021 Ledges Club Champion.

Trousdale joins a Troy program trending upwards after a successful first fall under Schultz. The Trojans posted a 40-36-1 head-to-head record in the fall, which already represents a nine-win improvement from last year's overall head-to-head mark. Additionally, the Trojans posted five rounds under par as a team; Troy had four combined team rounds in the red the last three seasons.

Troy's 21 rounds under par match last year's total in half the number of rounds played, and the Trojans are more than nine shots better per round as a team when comparing stroke averages between the last two seasons.
