LAS CRUCES, N.M. – The New Mexico State men's golf team is on a break until the spring season picks back up in February. However, the coaches are still hard at work on the recruiting trail. The team just recently signed a recruit, Ryo Harada, out of Machida City, Tokyo.

"Ryo is an extremely talented, young golfer, who will quickly adjust to playing at the collegiate level" said head coach Mike Dirks. "He has enjoyed some success at the top junior level, winning numerous times. He wants to continue to learn and improve; he has aspirations of playing golf for a living. We are so excited to have him join the Aggie Men's Golf program.
