Made me wonder just how many men's golfers have won the NCAA Individual, which goes back to 1897:

I would guess somewhere in the neighborhood of 120 men, give or take a few, depending upon repeat winners, wars, etc.

Not too many repeat winners:
Phil won in 1989, 1990 and 1992 (Arizona State)).  
Scott Simpson won in 1976 and 77 (USC).  
Ben Crenshaw in 1971, 1972, 1973 (Texas).
Dick Crawford in 1959 and 1960 (Houston).
George Dunlap, 1930, 31 (Princeton).
Fred Lamprecht, 1925, 26 (Tulane).  Fred was the first non-Ivy League winner.
Dexter Cummings, 1923, 1924 (Yale).

No tournament held in 1900, 1917 or 1918.  Two held in 1898 (one won by Yale, one by Hahvahd).
