LAWTON – After a strong fall, the Aggie men's golf team looks to carry the momentum into the spring as they compete at the Houston Classic on Monday and Tuesday at the Golf Club of Houston. 
 
In the first year under head coach Austin Phillips, Cameron's fall season saw them record three top-5 finishes including a second-place finish at the Ryan Palmer Invite and a fourth-place finish at their home tournament, The Hrnciar, to close out the fall.
