LARAMIE, Wyo. – University of Wyoming director of golf and men's head coach Joe Jensen announced the addition of four signees to the 2018-19 Cowboy golf roster on Wednesday. Liam Clancy (Billings, Mont.), Kirby Coe-Kirkham (Sheridan, Wyo.), Jimmy Dales (Northville, Mich.) and Tyler Severin (Johnstown, Colo.) will all don the Brown and Gold next season after signing National Letters of Intent during the November signing period.
 
"This recruiting class is tough, athletic, focused and mature with good foundations and fundamentals," Jensen said. "It is a solid class that will come in and continue to build upon what we're doing both athletically and academically. These players will continue the tradition and the expectation of Wyoming golf."
