KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. – Oregon Tech golf coach
Dave Myers has announced the signing of three student-athletes to Cascade Conference Letters of Intent for the upcoming 2022-23 season.
Freshman Brittany Barrington of Manteca, Calif., will join the nationally-ranked women's program, with a pair of Oregon players – freshman Kellen Humphries of Springfield and junior Tyler Vassar of The Dalles – joining the men's team.
Barrington was a two-sport athlete at East Union High, competing in both soccer and golf. In golf, she was a three-time All-Valley Oak League selection, earning Player of the Year honors in 2021. She will major in biological health science.
"Brittney is a great addition to our golf program," Myers said. "She is an outstanding student and player. Brittney has all the qualities of a great leader and teammate. I am very happy to welcome Brittney and her family into the Oregon Tech family."
Humphries was a three-sport athlete at Thurston High, competing on the football, basketball and golf teams. In golf, he claimed the 2021 5A state title and finished sixth this spring in the state championship. He plans to study geomatics at OIT.
"Kellen is a great student, competitor and athlete," Myers said. "He is a very driven player that is relatively new to the game. Kellen's great work ethic and competitive drive makes him a great fit here at Oregon Tech. We are going to see lots of great things from Kellen as he continues his career as an Owl."
Vassar heads to Tech after two seasons at North Idaho College, where he recorded three Top-5 finishes, including a win this spring at the Grays Harbor Classic. A 2020 graduate of The Dalles High, he was a 2-time 5A All-State pick and qualified for the 2018 Hogan Cup. He will study mechanical engineering.
"I am very excited Tyler has decided to become an Owl," Myers mentioned. "Tyler comes to us with the terrific resume of an established winner. He has shown he can put together great rounds, which is a testament to his mental strength. Tyler fits in very well with the other players and he is the type of person that will boost the team culture to the next level."
The OIT teams will open up the 2022-23 season, Sept. 4-6, at the Coastal Collegiate Classic in Gleneden Beach.
