BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Campbell University junior Fredric Sundberg is one of 423 players nationwide selected to participate in the 2007 NCAA Division I men's golf championships. Sundberg was one of six individuals tabbed to play next Thursday-Saturday (May 17-19) at the NCAA East Regional at the Golf Club of Georgia in Alpharetta, Ga.

Sundberg will be joined by a trio of Atlantic Sun Conference players at the Alpharetta regional. Jacksonville teammates Duncan Stewart and Russel Knox and North Florida's Jeff Dennis also earned at-large individual berths. A-Sun champion East Tennessee State claimed the league's automatic bid and is the fifth-seeded team at the West Regional in Stillwater, Okla.

The NCAA Championship will be conducted May 30-June 2 at the Gold Course at Golden Horseshoe Golf Club in Williamsburg, Virginia. Virginia Commonwealth University is the host institution for this year's championships.

Three regional tournaments, encompassing the current nine sub-regions, will be conducted May 17-19. A total of 27 teams and six individuals not on selected teams were assigned to each regional site. Ten teams and two individuals not on advancing teams will move on from each regional to the championship finals.

Sundberg is the third men's golfer in Campbell's NCAA Division I era (since 1977-78) to gain an at-large entry to the NCAA regional round. Georges Plumet earned individual spots in the 1998 and 1999 regionals, while Simon Dunn was an individual participant in 2002.

"I'm just so proud of the year Fredric's had and the contribution he's made to the University as a student and athlete," said 17th-year Campbell head coach John Crooks. "This is further proof of the direction our program is headed."

A junior from Gothenburg, Sweden, Sundberg stands fourth in the A-Sun and 72nd nationally with a 71.71 stroke average. In addition to first-team all-conference recognition, he earned all-tournament honors at the Atlantic Sun Championship with a fifth-place finish. He produced seven top-10 individual showings in 11 tournaments. Sundberg won the William & Mary Invitational at Kingsmill for his third career individual victory. He also added runner-up finishes at the Bowling Green and Charleston Southern tournaments.

The 2005 A-Sun Freshman of the Year, Sundberg gained second-team all-conference recognition in 2006. He has played in each of CU's 31 tournaments over his first three seasons.

During the 2006-07 season, Campbell tied a school Division I era record with four team tournament wins (Hartford, Old Dominion, Campbell, William & Mary). The Camels finished third in the Atlantic Sun Championship behind East Tennessee State and North Florida.
