Men's State Team Blog

Mike McCoy of Iowa, fresh off his victory at the Crump Cup at Pine Valley, has withdrawn from the final round of the Men's State Team Championship with an ankle injury. McCoy, the medalist at the 2009 U.S. Mid-Amateur and a semifinalist at the 2008 Mid-Am, had posted rounds of 72-79 prior to the injury. For precautionary reasons, McCoy decided not to risk injuring the ankle more. He is scheduled to play in the U.S. Mid-Amateur at Atlantic Golf Club Sept. 25-30 and wants to make sure he's healthy for that championship. Iowa stood tied for 33rd entering the final round, 21 shots behind co-leaders Georgia and Kansas. -- David Shefter
