TOLEDO, Ohio - Head Men's Golf Coach Jeff Roope announced on Thursday that Marijn Hoogeveen (Dordrecht, Netherlands) is transferring to the University of Toledo after attending the University of Kansas for the last two years.
"We are looking forward to having Marijn join the Rockets," Roope said. "We have chatted for much of the summer and have really gained a good feel for each other, our personal goals, and the goals of our program. We're really fortunate to have a talent like Marijn choose Toledo and are so happy that he'll be able to compete in the Midnight Blue & Gold this fall."
Hoogeveen competed in two tournaments this past season for the Jayhawks, registering a 74.3 stroke average highlighted by a 10th-place showing with a one-under par 215 (72-72-71) in the Spring Individual at Winstar. He redshirted in his first year at KU in the 2022-23 campaign.
