PROVO, Utah — Men’s golf head coach Bruce Brockbank announced the signings of Austin Shelley and Drake Harvey on Wednesday. 

We’ve always enjoyed this time of year where the kids actually sign the National Letter of Intent to play golf at BYU,” said Brockbank. “I watched both kids play the last few years and really like both Austin and Drake. Great kids, and I look forward to having them here at BYU. They both have developed skills to be successful in the classroom and on the course. They’re hard workers, and they have plenty of experience to step right in and make a tremendous impact on our team. Can’t wait for them to be here in September.”

Austin Shelley

Shelley will be joining the Cougars after he graduates from Skyline High School in May for the 2026-27 season. Shelley’s older brother, Tyson, is currently playing out his senior season, while his other brother, Jackson, will join him after Jackson returns from his mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in South Korea. 

Shelley attended Olympus High School for his freshman and sophomore seasons where he was named All-State honorable mention in 2022 and a first team honoree in 2023. Shelley helped the 2023 Olympus squad win the state title before transferring to Skyline for his junior and senior years. It was there that Shelley received two first team All-State selections and contributed to back-to-back team victories in the state championships, including claiming medalist honors at the 2025 Utah 5A State Championship.

In June, the Salt Lake City native took home the trophy in the 2nd UGA Utah Junior State Amateur.

Drake Harvey

Coming from Las Vegas, Nevada, Drake Harvey will graduate from Somerset Academy Sky Pointe High School in May before joining the 2026-27 roster. Harvey will be a third-generation BYU golfer, as his father and grandfather previously played for the Cougars. 

The 22nd-ranked golfer on the Rolex AJGA rankings is also the top-ranked AJGA golfer in Nevada. Harvey won three straight 4A individual state titles in the SNJGA. 

Harvey was also victorious at the 2024 Dye Junior Invitational and finished runner-up in the event in 2025. The Nevada native secured the victory at the UGA Winterchamps at Copper Rock and Green Spring golf courses in March.
