“The Border Olympics has always been one of college golf's premier events. I'm grateful for all that the folks in Laredo have done to support our game." -Jim Nantz

“The Border Olympics is one of the great traditions in college golf history. Everyone in the Laredo golfing community is involved. Their attention to detail and the way they all care so much makes this a very special event.” -Mike McGraw, Baylor Men’s Golf Coach

“The Border Olympics has always been a special event to me. I was fortunate enough to coach at ATM when Ryan Palmer and Jeff Brown won for the Ags. And then got to bring back my Senior Emiliano Martinez to his home course when I took over as head coach at UTSA. The hospitality on the course and off the course with sponsors and host families is unmatched in collegiate athletics. The support that Laredo CC and its members give is amazing and they always remember you year after year and are glad to see you.” -John Knauer, UTSA Head Men’s Golf Coach

“The University of Louisiana has had a long history with the Border Olympics and we greatly cherish our relationship with the event. It is truly an honor and privilege to compete in such a historic event. Laredo Country Club plays a great challenging test for our team and is certainly a treat to play. I have always thought that we had great hospitality here in Lafayette or otherwise know [as] Cajun Country, however, the city and people of Laredo, TX are second to none in regards to their sincere hospitality displayed to all of our Universities. It is very rare to see an entire community support our Collegiate Athletes and events, yet it is certainly what sets the Border Olympics apart. We look forward to our return to Laredo this year and many years to come.” -Theodore Sliman, Louisiana University Head Men’s Golf Coach

“The Border Olympics is always a tournament I look forward to every year.  Not only is the course a fun and fair test, the tournament is run first class.  The whole community does a great job making each and every person feel welcome. Between meals with your host family, “The Fajita Shack”, and everything else provided, it’s a great experience for every team and player there.” -Jessie Mudd, Lamar University Head Men’s Golf Coach

“Each year we look forward to traveling to Laredo for the annual Border Olympics collegiate golf tournament.  The weather is always great there in early spring, the course is a classic and the food is phenomenal. We are honored to be a part of such a historic college golf tournament.”- Justin Emil, Rice University Head Golf Coach

“In my four years competing at the Border Olympics, the Laredo weather was strikingly different every single time, but one thing did not change: the tournament was one of my absolute favorites. It was professionally run, the course was challenging, and the fields were strong. The combination of those three things make for a quality event, and this tournament is truly unique. Ask any former collegiate golfer fortunate enough to play the Border Olympics and they will all remember and highlight the same things: the challenging 18th hole, the uniqueness of event, the deep fields, and of course the fajitas! There truly is no event like Laredo, and the event is run to the highest of levels. It is truly one of my favorite memories from my college years.” -Michael Whitehead, 2011 Individual Champion, Rice University
