NORMAN, Okla. – Three Southern Conference men’s golf programs earned All-Academic Team recognition from the Golf Coaches Association of America, as ETSU, UNCG and Chattanooga each claimed the honor.

ETSU recorded a team grade-point-average of 3.61 and received President’s Special Recognition for having a GPA above 3.5. The Bucs were one of 24 teams (10 Division I programs) to earn the distinction, marking the most since the academic team awards program began in 2009.

ETSU has been named an All-Academic Team in all seven seasons of the award’s existence, while UNCG took the distinction for the fifth straight year.

To be eligible for GCAA All-Academic Team honors a college or university must submit the GPAs for each player on its official squad list for the academic year. A total of 169 teams submitted GPAs of 3.00 or higher to earn All-Academic honors.
