KU men’s golf signs three in 2014 class

The Kansas University men’s golf team received three letters of intent from recruits in its 2014 class, KU coach Jamie Bermel announced Thursday.

Joining the Jayhawks will be: Daniel Hudson, from Western Springs Ill.; Spencer Painton from Aurora, Colo.; and Gary Daoust, a native of Belgium who lives in Apopka, Fla.

“All three of them are competitive golfers, very good students and they are all very excited to be wearing crimson and blue,” Bermel said. “In twenty-two years of coaching, I have never signed a player who has made the cut in the US Junior (Spencer Painton) or finished in the top 20 of the Callaway Junior World (Daniel Hudson). And not since Martin Laird have I had a player represent his country in the European Boys Championships (Gary Daoust).”
