PISCATAWAY, N.J. – The Rutgers men’s golf program is thrilled to add three players to the 2025 recruiting class.
The Scarlet Knights welcome Daniel Regal (Madrid Spain), Harry Cohen (Wyckoff, New Jersey) and Lucas Politano (Brandon, Vermont) to the incoming freshmen class.
“It’s an exciting class for us at Rutgers men’s golf,” head coach Rob Shutte said. “We were able to keep a great player in New Jersey in Harry Cohen, we were able to recruit a great player locally in New England (Lucas Politano) which has been a great spot for us through the years, but also sprinkle in an international player (Daniel Regal) who is incredibly talented. We are super excited about the class. We got three really smart student-athletes who are looking forward to taking advantage of the Rutgers degree, who are also really bought into what we are continuing to do on the golf course here.”
Daniel Regal is a golfer out of Madrid, Spain who graduated high school last year and is joining the Scarlet Knights next fall.
Shutte is excited about the work ethic he brings to RU and the opportunities ahead for Regal.
“Daniel is a really unique student-athlete,” Shutte said. “He’s super smart and his personality and work ethic fit into our culture really well. He’s incredibly respectful and is going to take advantage of all the opportunities that Rutgers has to offer off the golf course. He’s a golfer and young man who gets it.”
